[QUOTE="gsykes, post: 724440, member: 20398"] I got hold of Nightforce and this is the reply I got : "[COLOR=#222222][FONT=Arial]what you are experiencing stems from how ExBal is designed to function as a solver. The solver/algorithm is set up to use the ASM (Army Metro System) versus the ICAO (International Civil Aviation Organization) system for calculating the affects of temperature?
