[QUOTE="sharpshooterbr, post: 916726, member: 6295"] While your calculations in the ballistic software appear correct with your numbers, 3550fps is WAY faster than I would expect from a Warbird. With the 210 gr VLD, I would realistically expect velocities to be in the 3150-3200fps range. One question I would ask is, did you fire a group at 300 yds with the scope still zeroed at 100 yds and measure actual drop, or did you adjust to a 300 yd zero and count your clicks? If you counted clicks, it's possible your scope is not tracking perfectly .25" per click. Also, atmospheric and terrain conditions could lead to less come-up needed. Were you shooting on flat ground, and not over a major terrain feature that could impart lift on the bullet during flight? [/QUOTE]
