I imagine it would depend on the size of the lead bullets you are using. FOr me, nothing a proper lead bullet won't do in a big bore as well or better than jacketed, at any handgun vel. My RBHB scoped will do 3" or slightly better from a rest @ 100yds using a 2x scope with good lead bullet loads. FWIW, your Magnaporting may be the issue w/ lead bullets.
