Gerry I know we can get pretty darn close to knowing what the speed of impact will be at 300 yards and further if we know our fps at the muzzle, but I still just had this itch to try it the hard way. I set my chronograph up at 300 yards and shot through the screen and into the jugs! :lol: I was a bit nervous the first time I did that as I sure didn't want to shoot my chronograph! :evil: It blazed through there at 2485 fps. That's the same bullet my son Jeff used two years ago on a big old cow elk at 350 yards broadside. He hit her tight behind her right shoulder and the bullet exited her left shoulder. She only went 20 yards, 30 at tops and tipped over. It worked pretty darn well!gerry":3ssvw3h6 said:DrMike":3ssvw3h6 said:That final picture is delightful, David. Thanks for posting.
X2, it looks like it would be good to keep the impact speeds up with the E Tip, you are still good for shots over 300 yards though still.
I was afraid Gerry, very afraid! :mrgreen:gerry":thdtwujv said:Well I guess it's good for 350+ yards then I do remember you shooting through your chronograph at 300 yards I'm sure you were concentrating when you pulled the trigger!
