   1:9 won't handle anything over 69 grains, they may look ok on paper at 100 yds but will be tumbling shortly after that as they slow. A simple cup and core bullet of up to 65 grains is your best bet....

   60gn Hornady, 63gn Sierra - drop deer no problems. 1-9 might be a tad too slow for the 75's, only one way to find out.

    What Shearer said track down the NI forum chronograph, its only going to cost you the postage to on ship once you have done with it. I have used the SI one several times now and its worth it.
