[QUOTE="charles bonner, post: 1049729, member: 37232"] Went out yesterday to shoot three of my rifles at 1000 yards.Target is across a draw and over the tip of a short ridge,Rifles are all zeroed at 100 yards and point of impact confirmed at 400 and 650 yards.Using shooter app on an IPhone ,Berger bullets and G7 BC. Rifle 1 is a 6.5 x 284 ,Leupold 35 x bench rest scope .Bartline 30" 8 twist ,Berger 140 gr VLD, This rifle shot first 3 shots 1 MOA high and after correction shot a 3 shot 4 " group. I am happy! Rifle 2 is a 300 WM ,Vortex 6 to 24 FFP Mill dot,Krieger 30" 1 in10 twist ,Berger 210 VLD. IPhone called for 6.9 mill ; to get on target took 8.0 mill.Did a velocity cal. and went back to short range and rifle now shooting way high as expected.Put in the new data for all three yardages - 400- 650-1000- and never could get phone data to agree with firing results. Rifle 3 was a 6 XC ,Nightforce 12 to 42,30 " Bartlien 30 " 1 in 8 shooting Berger 105 VLD.Results same as the 300WM. I have reset the 300 and 6 XC back to on target out to 650 but am really at a loss to explain the false information at 1000.Wind is trailing at about 2 mph and shot is almost dead level.Shot direction is SW and coriolis adds only one click to spin drift.Open to ideas .Thanks .
