Solved from this product's advertised 3000 fps, 180gr bullet and G1 BC 0.485, with the sight 1.5" over the bore at standard conditions. Compare every zero for .300 Win Mag.
How to read it: filled circles are the near and far zero, where the bullet's path crosses the line of sight;the triangle is the peak (max ordinate). The shaded band is the 8" vital zone, ±4" either side of the line of sight. The dashed line marks the edge of the hold-dead-on window. The chart is zoomed to where the zero matters; the tables below run to 500 yards.

Product Overview
Browning BXS 180-grain is a solid copper .300 Win Mag hunting load made for deer and big game. The BXS bullet is tipped solid copper, with no lead anywhere in it. It leaves the muzzle at 3,000 fps with 3,597 ft-lbs and has a G1 BC of .485.
Zeroed at 200 yards, it drops 6.6 inches at 300 and 19.0 inches at 400, where it still carries 2,051 ft-lbs. From a 100-yard zero the 400-yard figure is 24.8 inches.
If you're cross-shopping, Federal's Fusion 180-grain shares that G1 BC with a bonded lead core, starts 40 fps slower and drops 19.5 inches at 400 yards from a 200-yard zero. Sellier & Bellot's 180-grain TXRG is the other copper 180 and the slowest in the caliber, 23.8 inches low at 400 from that zero.
- No lead core, so it is legal where lead-free ammunition is required
- Still moving at 2,265 fps at 400 yards
- The most muzzle energy of the copper-bullet loads compared
- Among the hardest-kicking loads in the caliber, about 31 percent more estimated recoil than Winchester's Deer Season XP 150-grain
- Ammo Inc's 180-grain Super Shock Tip starts 75 fps faster and reaches 400 yards with more energy
