[QUOTE="WildRose, post: 1027003, member: 30902"] If your elevation varies by more than 3,000-4,000ft at long range it can make several inches difference in POI shift. Depending on what powders you are using that much difference in temperatures can make quite a difference in addition to that. To see exactly how much difference you'd need to run all your information through a ballistics calculator. You'd be much better off plugging your data for the different elevations and temps into a ballistic calculator and printing off different drop charts for them if you want a shortcut. If you want to be as accurate as possible then you need to carry a ballistic calculator with you in the field. There are downloadable apps for your phone or you can pick up a dedicated PDA for that purpose. [/QUOTE]
