[QUOTE="entoptics, post: 1940403, member: 104268"] 300 gr A-Tip (BC 0.863) at 2800 fps, with a 200 yd zero would impact about 90 feet below the shooter. But if you mean the maximum ordinate (peak of flight above the ground) when zeroed at 1 mile, that's in the neighborhood of 30 feet. The OP's 208, assuming 2900 fps, will be about 35 feet. To the OP, this is not just semantic math either. The wind 3 stories above the ground can be very different from what the mirage, grass, flags, etc are showing. The bullet will be over 10 feet above the ground, from about 200 yds, all the way out to about 1650 yds. [/QUOTE]
