[QUOTE="SBruce, post: 434851, member: 21068"] I've got the NF program on PC. In the field we were using the same program on a PDA. The PC version and PDA version don't exactly match (close, but up to 1/2 moa different) concerning the 338 EDGE. There is also a feature that doesn't work at all on my PC version but does work on the PDA one, it's the Trajectory Validation option, which we used on the PDA......perhaps why they didn't exactly match?? The NF PC program has a spot to change the click values (sight adjust option, custom), but when done; it doesn't change the amount to dial in, [U]UNLESS[/U] you check the box saying [I]"show total clicks" ............[/I]then it will change the amount of clicks needed to reach the same total drop, but shows this in clicks, [U]NOT[/U] moa.........unsure if the PDA version has this option? Example: 21.34 moa drop at 950 yds (212") is 85 clicks (assuming .25 moa/click) Same drop at 950 with .27 moa clicks is only 79 clicks.............[I]Real World, we had 76 clicks in and were still hitting a foot high on paper at 950.[/I] I am unsure how the newer Sierra program works, I've got an older version (version 2.2 I believe) and it doesn't agree with the NF program on drops (shows 2" more at 950 yds with input all parameters the same) so I've kinda quit using it for the time being.
