[QUOTE="Greyfox, post: 828157, member: 10291"] I'm not exactly sure what the issue is but I plugged your velocity and bullet into Shooter using an altitude of 2500ft and 70 temp and a BC of .488. Not exact, but close. If your velocity was off and the actual was 3150FPS, I get values very close to your actuals; The difference at 600 yards would be 5 clicks between 3373 and 3150FPS. At 890 yards I get 58.2compared to your actual of 60 clicks. At 1095 I get 88 clicks against your 87. My values using 3373 FPS is within a couple of clicks of your computed values. I only suspect your velocity of 3373 because the Nosler 264 Ammo which is loaded up to take advantage of the 264WM's capabilities runs at 3100FPS. 3373FPS sounds very high for that bullet in a 264. I'm not saying that this is your issue but I would start there. I have seen chronographs give errors of 200FPS. having seen the similarity between my calculations and your actuals I does lead me to believe your scope is probably OK. IMHO. [/QUOTE]
