[QUOTE="WildRose, post: 862777, member: 30902"] With such a consistent error my suggestion would be to move out to either 200 or 300 yds to get your windage zero and go from there staying with the same calculations for drop, spin drift etc. I've always found that if my rifles are zeroed at 100yds and I have "windage issues" at long range that's a problem usually easily solved by moving out to 200-300yds to get my zero windage set. When you get beyond 600yds the tiniest errors in set up or zero start to increase pretty much geometrically. As a general rule of thumb we were taught that every time you double your range you square your errors. It's a pretty good general rule of thumb. [/QUOTE]
