[QUOTE="royinidaho, post: 846319, member: 2011"] Allen, Good catch! This is a case where "assuming" made an *** out of me.:rolleyes: I simply haven't thought about how Shooter handles distance to chrono. My process is to place the chono @ 15 feet and run the data on JBM Ballistics, which gives the velocity @ the muzzle based on distance to the chrono. I then use that corrected velocity in Shooter. Then fudge it as needed, along with bc, to Shooter to match actual drops PDC (pretty darn close).:) I think this is another point in favor of the Magneto chrono thing or the acoustic gizmo down range. Thanks Roy [/QUOTE]
