[QUOTE="AKSavage, post: 1280824, member: 95938"] Sure thing. I appreciate your input and expertise. This has been a fun thought experiment, and I hope others on the forum benefit from it too. I still intend to run my own numbers, although mine are actually pretty close to yours. Slightly higher BC and MV (147 ELD-M at 3100 fps from a 6.5 SAUM), so the error would actually be less in reality. And yes, a 34 degree slope is pretty dang extreme too, so shooting at such an extreme angle would introduce shooting difficulties not even represented in the numbers. Here again, I chose an extreme angle so reality would most likely be kinder, not worse, and to make any errors large enough to be visible. [/QUOTE]
