Can anyone tell me the difference in point of impact between a patched RB and a maxi ball of the same approximate weight and powder charge?
The reason I'm asking is I had a t/c hunting tang peep installed on my .54 Renengade and have to replace the front sight. I know the height I need with with a 380 maxi and a 90gr charge. I would like to start shooting pached R/B's. Will they genneraly shoot to a higher point of impact due to their faster velocity? I've had a hard time getting the right front sight through trial and error and don't want to do it again. I'm realizing the gunsmith may have mounted the tang to high. He did not use the lower tang screw. He mounted the sight between the screws ( higher on the tang). I now need a .600 high front sight and if R/B's shoot higher I would need to install a ramp which looks out of place on the rifle.
