[QUOTE="Broz, post: 397089, member: 7503"] I agree, you really have to stretch numbers to even get close. Yes, durring this process I did re-calibrate my kestrel. Yes, twice with 3 shot groups. I have checked the scope at 100 yards for moa / inches. zero , 10, 20, 25, 30, 35 moa. It is spot on to 20 some moa but adds a bit more than it should at 35 moa. But all in all is whith in .5 moa. Which as you can see is just backwards to what the actual drops showed. I could shoot more at a chrono at distances. But still we should be able to find those majic numbers for BC, DC and MV. By just adjusting it with the drops I shot today.... Correct? I should also say. I was very good with the 300 SMK and a banded BC of .768 using exbal. My velocity was very close to what I chronod too. I shot this combo from 700 to 1400 yards regularly. I have also taken a yote at 880, a small deer at 1137 and an elk at 1130 all one shot kills with exbal and 300 SMK's. It was when I started using the new Bergers that I started having trouble. So I purchased LB3.0 and have been struggling since. Don't get me wrong, the Bergers have recorded steller groups. I am confident I can shoot very close to .5 moa to 1400. But just cant get the come up right. Jeff [/QUOTE]
