Uboatrobert, thanks for your input. How much of a POI shift have you had with different canisters? That would relate to muzzle velocity then which I would think I could check with a chronograph that I unfortunately don't own at this time. I have thought of that, but have since ruled that out...

Both my hunting shot and the range were flat within a few degrees of one another. The KILO ballistic solution takes the shot angle into account. Even at an extreme angle like say 33%, the most I would be off would be like 1/2 MOA but I’m 8X that amount at 4 MOA when I checked it on paper at 200...

Joefrazell thanks for your recommendation! I just found a Youtube video on the test you are suggesting and am looking forward to watching it and seeing if I have the range facilities and equipment to give it a try... Horniac

Mike 338 thanks for your help. I am going to shoot my gun next time at my hunt area just to make sure nothing has changed during the trip. I understand the atmospheric variables can change the ballistic solution but from playing around with my ballistic apps it would be very minimal and nowhere...

Tankgijohn72 thanks for your input! I am starting to rule out the ammo since I recalled that I sent an Accubond downrange and had the same low impact. When I was last at the range I was going back and forth between 200 and 300 yards and getting consistent tracking. I wasn’t able to go out any...

Rwreter thanks for your input. My Kilo was ranging in yards both at the range and on the hunt so even though I was shooting 500M I was dialing for roughly 547 yards... Horniac

WalksLikeADeer thanks for your input! Yes, my gun was zeroed at 200 yards and I set the turret to 200 yards and it was dialing well out to 500M and back to 200M before my problem occurred on my hunt. Wow that is an expensive scope to have that happen to - that doesn’t give a guy much confidence...

Thanks for the input guys. I thought it might possibly be related to the ammo but unfortunately I do not have a chronograph to double check this possibility. I guess I could shoot a couple of rounds from each box to check this theory. One thing I did do though (now that I am thinking about it...

I was hoping some of you experienced shooters on here would be able to help me with a problem I encountered with my gun that has me baffled as follows; I had a rifle built in 26 Nosler. I have a Huskemah Blue Diamond 5x20 scope on it with a turret built for the 140 gr Accubond. Because our...
