[QUOTE="Autorotate, post: 393178, member: 8073"] I'd like to get clarification from Patagonia on this point. Is this conclusion based on reference from Patagonia? The reason I ask is because on page 42 of my user manual for version 3.0.0.4 states: [B]"The upper area corresponds to the atmospheric conditions that were present during the Sight-In procedure. The lower area cooresponds to the actual, Field conditions as measured before taking the shot. All fields are disabled by default. By checking to ON, the FIELD Conditions boxes turn to enabled."[/B] I'm confused on the points you make regarding the BC being calculated/referenced at a ICAO standard atmosphere? I disagree that this upper field shouldn't be modified, and contend it's use is to capture the conditions that existed when you established the "zero" point for the rifle. How do you account for how the software knows to make it's correction "from"? No one (well nearly no one I presume) has the rifle "zeroed" under an ICAO atmospheric conditions. It's my contention this field (the top block under Data>Env) is used just as is stated on page 43 and quoted above. It's used to establish the "zero", so the software knows where to make it's correction from. The BC numbers that shooters are provided have no dependence on environment. That's why we input all our specific environmental data into for our specific application. I state this from a perspective that is ready to learn, and not one where my way is the right way. I would appreciate it if you'd explain it to me, and others why we should not use this top field to capture the conditions that were present when the rifle as zeroed as per page 42 of the Mobile Users's manual. Thanks! [/QUOTE]
