[QUOTE="Bravo 4, post: 1488762, member: 8873"] The BC would have to go from an advertised .659 to closer to .9 G1 to gain (or lose, however you want to look at it) 20” at 910 yards. Your velocity would have to go up over 100 fps, or your scope be off by 10%. Which is more likely? The .2 mil difference in your drop @ 455 yards is 10% of the 2 mils calculated, and the .6 mil difference @ 910 is 10% as well...I see a pattern here. As others have said, check your scope. I check mine in a fixture at exactly 100 measured yards before I ever mount it. I’ve had a new (and expensive) name brand scope be off by 10% before. It happens! On the flip side, I also have a chronograph that is consistent in spitting out a velocity that seems 100 fps off when I put the numbers in my app. [/QUOTE]
