[QUOTE="gimpster, post: 975227, member: 82434"] I'm not in the ID area but I'll see if I can give you some pointers that might help. Ballistic calculators are awesome feats of mathematics and can be incredibly precise, but they will only work if you have the right input data. Can you give more details about where your shots are landing in relation to the calculated firing solution? Also, what kind of distances are you trying to shoot? Common problems: 1) Incorrect muzzle velocity 2) Incorrect ballistic coefficient (BC) 3) Incorrect atmospheric conditions (most important being the absolute barometric pressure, not the corrected one you get from the weather station) In addition to this, there's the possibility that your scope is not tracking 100% correctly.
