[QUOTE="Joe King, post: 712519, member: 47325"] Whats your scope height? Get that input wrong and you can run around in circles for a while wondering just WTH is going on. I know this :P I ran your bullet and vel across Bryan's calc and with your scope I set scope height at 1.8". At 3" at @100 you should see 3" high @200 but as Green788 pointed out it doesn't always work out that way. could be a parallax issue (you may not have it adjusted even though your sure you did). Could be and adjustment you made to your shooting position between yardages. 1" at 200 is a pretty damned small amount to be off and most anything can cause it to show up, just the nature of the beast if your not very very consistent with how you shoot. At any rate keep after it and you'll get it figured out. Bryan's suggestion on a 100yrd Zero, is how I would go about it personally, or at least go dead on at 200.:) [/QUOTE]
