[QUOTE="AJ Peacock, post: 170661, member: 4885"] CS, OK, maybe I should have said - Something is happening out there "as the bullet slows"? Maybe it's just the long flight time, the fact that the wind is tough to dope at 3500yds (I have trouble at 1/10th that sometimes), mirage sucks or the phase of the moon is affecting them. Maybe its the rotational stuff I don't know. You said (There is no such thing as a definition of "accurate", ...) and I suppose thats true. I was just curious what your definition was, not trying to start anything re the whole 'trans-sub-sonic-vibration-end-of-the-world-make-believe-phenomenon" thing. :-) My definition would include something about an expectation of a hit on my intended target, whether I was shooting a LR rifle or a slingshot. I suppose those rifle's are accurate, they are just being used beyond their realistic limits or any expectation of a hit. If they are hitting in a 10' diameter circle thats around 11,000sq inch area. If a prairie dog is a 10sq inch target then they can expect to hit him once every 1100 shots! AJ [/QUOTE]
