[QUOTE="THEIS, post: 1341883, member: 99239"] Hello, Well as the title says....Is your rangefinder causing your misses?? Just for example..run your chosen ballistics for a 2600 meter target compared to a 2610 meter target, BUT be sure to take into account your MV deviation margin too, so run those ballistics for those distances with your MV variations of +/- 5 fps :) One of the most LEAST talked about aspects of ELR shooting is Margin of Error in support equipment such as laser rangefinders, scope calibration errors, gps errors, etc. So taking that a Vector IV, Vector 21, and Moskito have a +/- 3 METERS margin of error for anything under 50 meters or over 2000 meters...... What is the margin of error in YOUR chosen rangefinder? Have you checked the margin of error on your device in different weather conditions? Have you checked the margin of error with brand new batteries compared to used batteries? Ever wonder why Sig does not state the "Kilo" margin of error? (I could not find it on their website at least) THEIS [/QUOTE]
