Update: took the NEF .50 out back yesterday to check how close the store clerk "bore sighted" my rifle. Not bad if you shoot at about 10 feet. Pretty lousy after that

The 777 pellets were great, . . . it went boom when it was supposed to go boom and click when it was supposed to go click.

Used two pellets for each shot, . . . wound up quitting at 50 yards because we had some other things more pressing.

My question to you long time BP shooters, . . . what kind of drop do you get out of a 240 grain load similar to mine over say 100 yds, . . . or 150 yds? Or is there a chart out there in cyberspace that will give me some relative info that I can count on?

Thanks, one and all.

May God bless,
Dwight
