So I'm awaiting pickup of my new Savage Mark II G, chambered in .22LR and I bought 3 different types of ammo, all CCI. The Mini-Mag, Velocitor and Quiet-22 for various shooting scenarios. I planned on zeroing the rifles iron sights at 75 yards using the mini-mag, and I'm wondering how that will work out if I decide to load one of the other rounds.
I used CCI's comparison chart but am new to ballistics and would appreciate any advice. Here's the numbers for each, all 40gr bullets. All numbers given for 75 yard zero EXCEPT the Quiet-22 which is listed as 50 Yard zero. Confuses the numbers a little
Velocity @ muzzle, 25, 50, 75, 100
Mini mag 1235, 1156, 1092, 1040, 998
Velocitor 1435, 1326, 1230, 1149, 1084
Quiet-22 710, 692, 674, 656, 640
Trajectory@ 25, 50, 75, 100 (75 yard zero for mini and veloc.; 50 for Quiet)
Mini Mag 0.7, 1.3, 0.0, -3.3
Velocitor 0.3, 0.9, 0.0, -2.5
Quiet-22 1.5, 0.0, -6.4, -17.8
Would it be possible to zero at 75 yards with the mini-mag and then basically hold low for the velocitor out to 75 and hold same out to 50 for the quiet? Or should I plan on re-zeroing between target shooting and hunting? I know this will take some experimentation on my part, and I'll likely just try it and see how it works out on paper. Thanks for any opinions though.
