Wes, the big difference, of course, is sectional density, which will affect penetration. To elaborate on the energy, these numbers were calculated for STD conditions, @ 1,000 ft elevation. Remaining lb ft energy, for your MVs, at 200; 300; 400; 500yd; 1) 118 gr: 1482; 1199; 461; 763
2) 150 gr: 1029; 856; 710; 591
I must admit, I was surprised. The relative drops, in inches/MOA, presuming a 200yd zero:
1) 118gr, -6.8/2.2; 20.4/4.9; 42.5/8.1
2) 150gr, -15/4.8; 43.6/10.4; 83.5/16.9
I'm even more surprised!RG
If you want to look flat, hang out with rainbows!
