[QUOTE="Laguna Freak, post: 2003941, member: 87188"] So I haven’t entered the data into my calculator but, my 300 WSM 180 gr bullet that was 1” high at 100 yards in S TX was 5”+ high at 100 yards just outside of Cody, WY in Sep. Elevation was below 7000 feet. Btw; calculators that fatally attempt to use elevation in place of temp and barometric pressure are a bad joke. IMO. You cannot get an accurate equation by attempting to substitute elevation for 21” of mercury. 21” of mercury at 500’ is the world’s most devastating hurricane but its an average blue bird day at 6500 feet.
