[QUOTE="Ian M, post: 86145, member: 25"] Jerry, Might be driver-error, what I did was put a target at the top of 12 feet of heavy cardboard on our huge backboard, then shoot at all the distances with the same 100 yard zero on the scope. Scope never changed, only change was all the firing locations. Then, we eyeballed how much drop occured to the center of each group. This is probably where the goof-up occured. The BHA drops were shot on steel plates, one constant firing location and I shot at a bunch of plates situated at the various distances. When the bullet were hitting the center of the plate I called that the zero for the particular distance. Maybe I was did not shoot enough rounds to create true drops with the first test. All 3-shot groups, but some were very small - sub 0.5 moa or very close all the way out. Committed to AMAX, might have some SST's tho and will try to shoot some. ian [/QUOTE]
