Sorry mods if this is in the wrong section, please move accordingly.
So, will a 45gr 22lr bullet have the exact same drop at 100 yards, 200 yards, etc as say a 700gr 50 cal bullet? Let's assume that both bullets are traveling at 1050 fps each. All things the same, just weight I'd think they would have the same bullet drop at any distance. I'm looking to standardize a couple firearms with the same scopes and would like to know if every one can be adjusted and shot the exact same, regardless of caliber. As far as the question the 22 and 50 were examples but I have several in between.
