[QUOTE="milo-2, post: 1922627, member: 33622"] The general consensus seems to be to true your muzzle velocity to 600 yards to match your drops, adjust the BC after. Some bullets will match your app, some never will. Some bullets BC drops off after so far, others seem to grow wings and fly better than predicted. Berger hybrids are notorious for flying better after so far down the range, 6mm 110 Sierra also. In my experience, Hornady bullets drop off in BC, though I can't or don't have the time to prove it, I think for dopes to match up, that bullet needs to exit the muzzle at a certain velocity range. Go too fast, issues, go slower, issues. [/QUOTE]
