Dan,

I've got the picture, I believe. It doesn't take too many shots (with conicals) to realize that the load necessary to get the velocity required to acheive a relatively flat trajectory out to 100 yds gives you a whole lot of recoil. I've been shooting round balls off the bench with 200 grains FFG Swiss and they have been going into 1.5" at 50 and about 3" at 75 and 2" trajectory from 25 to 75 yds. Probably be better if I could see and hold harder. I'll work up to 220 or so. At least I am releived to find that the 1:48 will work. I really always preferred to shoot balls - just had to ask the question to get those with the knowledge to respond. Thanks. PJB
