I'm looking for ballistics info for my 7mm-08 pistol. It is a T/C Encore with a 15" barrel using Remington 140gr core lokt PSP. Sighted in at 100yd.

I looked in my shooters bible and on the net but all I can find is ballistics for a rifle with a 24" barrel.

Assuming we are talking factory loads,I'll be guessing on the BC and speed here. But figuring a BC roughly at .400 and knowing Remington is conservative, figure about 2450 fps (maybe abit high) out the 15". The approximate numbers are such comming from my RSI program. yd/drop,,,100/0,,,150/1.63,,,175/3.07,,,200/4.96,,,225/7.29,,,250/10.09,,,

275/13.36,,,300/17.13,,,325/21.40,,,350/26.20,,,with 1334 ft.lbs. remaining. I'm sure this isn't totally accurate with out some other variables plugged in, but close.

If it were me, I would set it up for PBR,,2.00" high at 75 yds. which gives you a dead center hold on a 5" target to 225-230 yds. And 10" low at 300.

If you want, PM me your addy and I'll send you a print out.

If not I hope this helps.
