[QUOTE="D.Camilleri, post: 981118, member: 2567"] Thanks for the reply. I have to re verify my tall test on my scope. I made a bad assumption the other day that I was at 100 yards, when in fact I was at 102-104 because of the number of people at the range, I was having to aim across half a dozen benches to line up with a clean piece of plywood. Test was not accurate. I am having a little better luck with shooter however. I am letting it pull the information from the local weather station. I went out the other afternoon after it rained most of the morning. The humidity was very high for Worland at around 44%. Shooter called for 13.9 minutes at 690 yards. I dialed 14 and took two shots. Shots were two inches apart and 5 inches low. I adjusted my velocity back down to 2730 which actually matches my chronograph and now shooter calls for 14.2 moa. Pretty close. My scope is working better now that I switched to a zero minute rail. It got my elevation turret off of the bottom. When I plug my data into G-7 ballistic table, it is very close with shooter. One thing I still can't figure out, with a dead on 100 yard zero, my drop at 200 is 2.0 inches and my drop at 300 is 8.75 inches, this doesn't match any of the drop charts. 8.5 moa puts me dead on at 500 and that drop matches the 2730 velocity in shooter and G-7. None of this works with Exbal. In order for exbal to work at 690, I have to input 2830 as velocity with all other parameters the same. At this point I am sticking with shooter, and thinking about getting a kestrel. [/QUOTE]
