[QUOTE="BrentM, post: 790097, member: 61747"] OK. Well I ran your original numbers and I get a result like this: 400 6.3 800 25 To get 27 MOA @ 800 you need 2465 fps. To get 5.5 @ 400 you need 2715 fps. On the computer that says your bullet is slowing down/decreasing at an increasing rate that is not normal. Not only is not normal I think it is impossible. I know, bold statement, but physics is usually pretty honest. So I am leaning toward 2 things. - Scope turrent is not tracking perfectly vertically. - shooter eye alignment with scope bore is changing vertically. [/QUOTE]
