Help with Slug Ballistics?

[Hemingway]

I can't seem to find info on any of the ballistic calculators for slugs, only centerfire rounds.

I'm specifically looking for info on the Remington Accu-tips in 12 ga, 2 3/4". What is the drop at 100 yards on these things? What is the trajectory at 25, 50, 100, 150, etc?

At $3 a round, I'd rather not spend an afternoon making my own table. Anywhere know where I can get some info on that? Remington's site is not any help (at least where I can find).

Thanks

EDIT: these will be out of fully-rifled 870.

Yes, that does help. Although, the round I use isn't listed on the table.

The Winchester equivalent (XP3) says if zero'd at 100 yards, it's:

-.2" at 25
.8" at 50
.7" at 75
0" at 100
-1.5" at 125
-3.9" at 150

I am assuming the Accu-tips would be roughly the same. But, it is 85 grains more (385gr total) and comes out at 1850 fps. Is there a way to do the math?

An Article in Shooting Times claims the following (when zero'd at 150 yrds):

50 yards +2.7"
100 yards +3.6"
150 yards 0.0"

Not sure if this is correct. (Besides, who zeros slugs at 150 yards? Seems a bit excessive to me).

I have emailed Remington to get their input. Will report my findings here.

Supposedly they have a G1 BC of 0.145. I'd chrony them, but if you expect they are running 1850, Ballistic's output is below. Thats with a 50 yard zero, and I'm not sure why the post-zero corrections are shown as negative when they should be positive. If I get in front of my laptop I'll double check this with QT.
