A 25% heavier bullet going 75% of the speed cannot have the same POI at 500 yards.
Weight is totally irrelevant to the argument. BC and velocity alone determine the trajectory. It's a pretty simple matter to find totally different bullets fired at totally different velocities that have two zero nodes in common, especially if you're judgnig only by hitting a gong and not on paper. Beyond that point I would speculate (though it is a very educated guess) that the heavier bullet will have the trajectory advantage.

The thing that is really impressive and that makes shooting a .22lr at range difficult is judging the wind. The bullets are flying bricks from a BC standpoint and moving relatively slowly. Those two factors combine for a very wind sensitive projectile. I've hit a 20oz soda bottle at a lasered 400yds with a 10/22 with a lot of trial and a whole lot of error. Using a rough holdover and a bit of Kentucky Windage I was consistently in the area and could see the bullets arc in through the scope. It was simply a matter of getting lucky hitting the bottle at that range because even though the height of the bottle was within the vertical dispersion of the bullets from MV variances, the wind was all over the place so I was missing by several feet left and right with the same hold.

Nice Shooting! Looks like A LOT OF FUN!

Anyone else still chuckling about the attorney's comments? I like how Clayne played his star witness after the attorney had a chance to pop off! LOL

It was just my way of getting the video out of the kid quickly for us to enjoy his talent and reminisce....


Waste not want not. :)
