[QUOTE="jkupper, post: 842316, member: 61637"] Okay. .1MOA at 1000 yards is a lot different from what I had at 700 yards. My MV may have been off from my drop sheet, I get that, but wouldn't it have been off of the mark at 500 yards as well? Or, is the difference there small enough that it wouldn't matter much? This was the first time that I shot the gun at 700 yards at home. I shot it in Wyoming last weekend at 950 yards, but I was gathering the information for my turrets and didn't rely on a drop chart, I just adjusted from what my spotters were telling me. I'm planning to go shoot again this next weekend from the same place and see if the results are the same. I should have my BDC turrets in by next weekend to, and I can confirm that they are on. I'm was shooting 168 gr. VLD's, so the BC is rather high, .617. I think this is just going to take a lot of experimentation....which is fun! Thank you all for the replies! [/QUOTE]
