I could be wrong but I think that calculator is for smokeless powder which should calculate different than black powder. Atleast thats what Ive been told.
Guess I will have to just take a few more shots after the opening morning sit. I don't think I will have a chance between now and then. Thanks, guys.

I guess the theory is the bullet is still rising. Only way to know for sure is to shoot it on paper at 100
Ding ding ding.... You are the winner!
Every gun and every bullet shoots differently!
I don't think there's as much drop as you might think from 50-100 yards. I have same gun and same loads. Mine is zeroed in about 3/4-1" high at 50 yards, cutting same hole. I haven't shot it much on paper at 100 because my shots are normally 50yds or less. Last year I had the opportunity for a pretty long shot, by Florida standards. I had a big old boar step out at 125 yards broadside. I had a very solid rest on my tripod stand and held center mass on the shoulder crease and fired. Hog hit the dirt DRT. I couldn't find an entry or exit because of the shield/fat, but upon cleaning it the bullet went thru and thru exactly where I was holding it
Exactly my thoughts. I will just take into account the rifle is high 2.5" until I get more time on the range. That should take me out to 125 with pretty much the same aim point. I highly doubt I will get a shot at that distance or anything past that, but it helps knowing the rifle is VERY consistent.
