[QUOTE="Michael Eichele, post: 79556, member: 1007"] That is a very good point BB. Yes, my hold over values will change with power. The tests were done on 15x, which is where my reticle = 2 MOA per hold over. Jerry, I am glad someone else shares this phenomenon. I have run the numbers every which way and just cant figure out why it shoots soooooo flat. 10" at 1000 isnt much, but 10-12" at 600 yards....Thats a HUGE differance. Oh well, I will just take my rediculously flat shooting load and be happy with that. (Its my sheep load) The funny thing is that when I shoot 155 AMAX's out of the same rifle at 3600 FPS, they fall at 600 yards VERY close to what the calculator sais they should based on a BC of .474, which is what it was in the real world in my 308. The 178's however WAY out perform the 155 AMAX. Thanks guys [/QUOTE]
