[QUOTE="Broz, post: 861301, member: 7503"] Steve, I had a similar experience yesterday as well. I was confirming zero and drops. In the end I plan to reshoot the data. I think that mirage tends to make me shoot low. Like it elevates the target image. My problem always seems to show up when I am trying to split a fine aim point. groups may be somewhat acceptable but not where I think they should be elevation wise. As far as combatting mirage. I guess the only things one could do would be to turn down the magnification. But that is hard if you are looking for solid pin point data. Or wait for a cloud or overcast day. Funny that I have never had mirage be a problem while hunting. It is always when engaging a target. We just got some good rain last week so there is moisture in the ground. Then when it warms up like this the afternoons with rising surface temps seem to be the perfect scenario for mirage. Jeff [/QUOTE]
