[QUOTE="TopPin, post: 2747956, member: 109070"] My opinion on the mater of why your group is falling off beyond 800 yards would be one or a couple of factors. I personally don’t true bc in a Kestrel or any other program inside of 700yards. Trust the target. If you’re hitting low or high on drop data it’s a velocity or bc factor. If you’re shooting in consistent weather conditions. Humidity, 20 degree temp swing, wind, barometric pressure, ext are all factors along with barrel twist, bullet choice, reloading practices ext. try and true your drop to consistently impact at 700-1000 yards. The fall off point in true bc is typically between 800-1000 yards in my findings. Most projectiles velocity start to have a parachute effect with velocity, and bc after 800 yards. Typical fall of point in velocity where the projectile typically starts slowing down at a more rapid rate. Just my opinion. [/QUOTE]
