[QUOTE="4ked Horn, post: 125990, member: 11"] [b]Re: Ballistic chart just don\'t match the real world. Need some help.[/b] Roy, your help was a big help. we ran into another obstacle we had no idea was coming. At one point Bro was hunting with a buddy and had a 350 yard shot on a 4 point (western count) and missed by 24 inches low??? [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shocked.gif[/img] We fired a test shot the next morning to discover he had shot his range shots with his left hand resting on the scope. this (we think) was enough to cause the bbl to touch the forend and raise the impact at the range. Then when he shot at the deer and didn't have his hand in the same place the bbl sagged to its correct position and the shot went low. All that worry and fuss and then having to go back to the drawing board. I think a quick morning at the range and a quick scope adjust should fix the problem. Then we should have the time to play with some programs and get more input on how to get the right calculations. Again thanks for your help when we needed it done real quick. [/QUOTE]
