[QUOTE="RockyMtnMT, post: 1390882, member: 7999"] Been thinking about this thread. I think many of the guys here that prefer to work at 100y don't stop there and just rely on the math of the drop chart / balistics calculator. They do verify those farther down range solutions. If there are guys looking at this that are thinking they can verify a solid zero at 2" high at 100 that will give them a true zero at 300y and they will be good to go when they get to their hunting spot to use hold over reticles or dial yardage out to 1000y are looking for a train wreck with animal victims. The math and bc's are not reliable. Every rifle system is different. I wind up with different bc values for the same bullets in twin rifle systems. I quit worrying about why and just adjust bc values until the projected drops match field drops. I hope this clears up my position. No one can figure out long range solution without leaving the 100y butt. Steve [/QUOTE]
