Here is the test. I used 310 AP and 300 TTSX and 250 Mono. I didn't bothe with the flat nose original
Today was bad wind. 33km with 58 km gusts so less than ideal. Both targets are shot with main crosshairs so that drop can be seen. Very interesting results given the windy conditions!
First up the 100 yard target!

Next up 300 yard target and again no compensation for wind or drop. You can see where I aimed and where I dropped.

You can see what reticle I'd have to use for each bullet and the 310 gets the nod for accuracy and less wind drift. 310 was pushing 2740fps while the 300 was at 2726fps avg
I figured it was a going to be a complete waste of time but actually it was excellent!

That is impressive given the wind we had today. That is going to be a great ml round. Heck I have to dial ~12 " @ 300m in 20 mph wind with a modern CF .308 @ about 2400 fps.
Did you try the doppler in the high wind today? Is that how you got the speeds?

Thanks and yes the Labradar comes with on every range trip these days. Just too handy! It tracked out to 100 but I didn't try for longer distance. What surprised me is how much velocity the 310 carried over the the 250 Mono at 100. 2499 verses 2350. The Mono started out at 2870 and the 310 at 2740....
We also noted the following;
Three triple 7 pellets in my buddies 50 cal push a 300 grain projectile 1930 fps
12 gauge 385GN accutip slugs get pushed around significantly in that wind at 100 yards plus kick a hell of a lot harder than my 458 with a 300 pill!
So does a 20 gauge 2 3/4 accutip but less so.
