[QUOTE="kindabigdeal, post: 1394019, member: 50218"] Search some other threads on here, some good info available. A ballistic calculator works off math, like a calculator should. But dont believe for a minute it is exact, there is something in every gun that makes it shoot different from the exact gun next to it. Use the calculator as a guide but verify and adjust your calculator to your gun. My best example is my huskemaw on a tikka in 7mm. We did all the data collection,You can punch the data in and out comes the chart. We used two calculators, huskemaws and i-snipe. They give the same answers. But when the gun is shot it shoots high. Zero at 200 was a couple inches high at 400, about 4 high at 600 according to the chart i mean. Seems the further we went the worse it got. Had to adjust the bc to create the proper chart, did that by measuring distance and counting clicks. We ended up on a bc of .741 to create the calculator that matches the clicks perfectly [/QUOTE]
