[QUOTE="Mike 338, post: 1363913, member: 41338"] OK, about 8000'+ in Colorado has a Station Pressure of 22.525 in., not 30.06 in. (Walden Colorado). [URL]http://forecast.weather.gov/product.php?site=BOU&product=OSO&issuedby=BOU[/URL] Try plugging those numbers into JBM and see if it jives with what your actually shooting. Remember to disable (no checkmarks) the two boxes at the bottom (Standard Atmosphere at Alt & Pressure is Corrected). In the off chance it does get you close, you don't need a new range finder. You need a device that measures real Pressure. I have a old Leica 1600. It does not give a ballistic solution. Does yours or are you using JBM for your dope? [/QUOTE]
