Muzzle Velocity question
Can someone point me in the right direction as to what kind of muzzle velocity I should be getting out of an Omega with 250 grain .452 XTPs / Black crushed trib sabots with 100 grains of FFF Goex Pinnacle by volume?
I was running one of the Ballistic programs that Chap linked up but I have no idea of my muzzle velocity or what I should put in for scope height since I shoot a peep sight.
Iguessed 1700 for the velocity and .5 inches for the scope height.
Thanks.

RE: Muzzle Velocity question
I've never shot Pinnacle, over a chrono or otherwise, but here's a comparison for you frommy Mustang records. I got a five-shot average of 1850 fps with 250 grain Gold Dots, crush rib sabots, and 100 grains T7 FFG. With 90 grains I got 1738 fps, and with 110 grains I got 1894 fps.

Thanks guys. I think the Pinnacle is a little slower that the 777 but that tells me if I have it sighted in at 50 I should be 2-3 inches low at 100. I'll have to shoot it at that range to find out.
