i have been poking around the internet looking for trajectory charts for black powder bullets. not having a lot of luck. plenty of ''apps'' that will figure it for you.
anyway......i came across some testing a shooter did with different bullets. according to his tests the most efficient bullets drop 1/2 what the poorest performers [hornady xpt] drop. i guess in all my life of shooting, reloading i have never seen such a thing. a barnes drops 9'' at 200 yds. vs. hornady drops 20''. of course same initial velocity and bullet weight. have others found this to be true?
