I went to our range at the farm yesterday, checking zero. My load is 78 grains by measured weight on scale, which is around 110 grains volume. Rifle is cva Optima v2, stainless, with Sightron S1, 3x9. I'm zeroed now , at 3 inches high, @100 yards. When shot at 200 yards, it's just under 4 inches low. So, it's actually zeroed for about 150 yards. I shot the first three, one being clean barrel, albeit fired 2 primers, and all three in a knot at 100. I'm very impressed with BH209. I'll never shoot pellets again. The bullet I'm shooting is the Barnes 250 tipped, packaged for the Remington UML. These things are wicked on whitetail! Never had one walk! Stupid accurate too!
Ps. I do use the special breechplug that CVA puts out, especially for BH209. Using CCI magnum shotshell primers.
