[QUOTE="Dr. Vette, post: 481171, member: 22335"] I'll throw in a "it depends." Using published data from Hornady, the ammo for my 7mm Wby Mag shoots exactly where it is predicted to hit in two different rifles, even out to 500 yards. However, I'm not going to guarantee the same is true for your rifle. Odds are that the BC of the bullet will be right on, but using a chrono will give you true MV, which is where most of the published error seems to occur. Hope that helps. [/QUOTE]
