[QUOTE="4xforfun, post: 246164, member: 9172"] Actualy....no.....It isn't. He might have had to dial up enough elevation to zero him at 950 from a 100 yard zero, but the actual DROP from the muzzle would be around 250 inches based on 2500 ft ele @ 60 degrees F @ 2875 fps. The bullet would drop 213 from his 100 yard zero. Alot of you guys zero at 100 yards and start your dialups from there. I personaly use 300 yards as my starting zero. That would be the difference between bullet drop and bullet path. Am I splitting hairs.......YEP.......I am.:D Unless he is shooting the 300 SMK at 3100 FPS out of an Edge, or shooting at standard Edge velocitys, but at about 18,000 feet elevation at an air temp of 130 degrees..... Then yep....that sounds about right. [/QUOTE]
