[QUOTE="shortpants, post: 465582, member: 30564"] The answer is I have never shot it through a chrony because when you develope your drop chart by just shooting various ranges without adjusting the turret from 100yd. zero and then measure the drop it does not matter how fast your bullet is traveling. It is a long process however, and that is why I don't want to go through it for every bullet choice available, that would take years. I have tried adjusting the velocity in the calculator without adjusting the b.c., adjusting the b.c. without doing the velocity, and tried adjusting both. The question is how do you compare bullets in a calculator when you don't have a true velocity or b.c. since all the manufacturers are inflating their data? Even if I knew my velocity it would not match what the calculator is saying? [/QUOTE]
