Exactly! I only load one load for each rifle, so one zero, and one trajectory to learn. I have been present when peoole that have multiple loads for a rifle got confused and made poor shots as a result. One individual had three different loads in his pocket, and was not even aware of it.
As for the 120 grain ballistic tip, it basically has the same jacket as the 140gr ballistic tip, with the thin from section cut off. This came about because the metallic silhouette shooters wanted a tougher 120gr bullet.
