Shot 208s today & @ 100*+ & 29% humidity @ 100 yards -
4 shot groups from 16" M1S upper w/762SD can:
These all need about +11" of elevation to hit bull @ 100 as compared to 125g Supersonic POI.
9.4G-1103.1 fps 2.296" group
9.6g-1106.3 fps 1.594"
9.8g-1118.7 fps 2.493"
None of the above sounded supersonic

I'm surprised there wasn't more Vel difference from 9.4g to 9.8g

For accuracy thought I would load some supersonics & see how they shot:
11.6g-1278 fps 1.487" & it hit 8" low of regular 125g supersonic loads
Not bad.

Definately cheaper than 220g SMKs & I'don't think a hog will know the difference.
If BC is 0.648 (I wonder if this is correct BC for this bullet @ subsonic velocities?) then energy @ 100 yards should be about 527 or close to a 357Sig @ the muzzle.
