[QUOTE="royinidaho, post: 374011, member: 2011"] Checking drop in 10 - 100 yd intervals will wear out your shoes if ya have to walk..... After proper barrel break in. Step 1 While zeroing and working up a longrange load. Zero at 200. Load should have a Max velocity spread in the low teens or single digits. 15 FPS is a little much...... in my book. Use the calculator/computer program to project the drops. Shoot at 400, 600 and 800. Make adjustments to BC ........ Reshoot a 200, 800 and 1K to verify. This sound simple but it really isn't. There's a lot of work involved. There ain't no free lunch when shooting much beyond 750 yds. Anything to save barrel life is worth it..... [/QUOTE]
