[QUOTE="WillHunt, post: 946375, member: 40150"] Coming from a short to medium range hunting background here, so please bear with me. I am shooting a 7mm Rem Mag, Federal Premium 150 grain NBT factory loads and factory gun. The Federal website publishes the following trajectories: +1.4 @ 100yd; 0 @ 200yd; -6.4 @ 300 yd. I just shot the rifle 10 times (groups of 3 at 100 and 200 and 4 shots at 300). I was +2 @ 100, 0 @ 200, and -9.5 @ 300. Surely the reason for my lack of flatness isn't that I'm too high at 100 right? Or is it? If that were the case wouldn't I be high at 200? And if that were the case, I would need to click DOWN to move my 300 yard group UP?!! Help please. I thought my 300 yard group would be higher than the published data since my 100 yard group (+2) was higher than the published group (+1.4). [/QUOTE]
