[QUOTE="Codyg510, post: 699204, member: 49514"] So my second trip to the range went as expected. I started by confirming my Chrony results weren't crap by shooting some long range (400-600Y) will mil-dot hold overs calculated to my data. The results were acceptable and confirmed to my own satisfaction that my MV was correct. (Note on Millet TRS: 10X is specified as the mil-dot hold over power by the manual when in actuality 16X is the proper magnification to achieve proper hold overs/ranging). As far as dialing is concerned, i shot at ranges from 200-650 yards with the same results as before. All my data from JBM and my ballistic app output resulted in POI's that were low. The condition gets progressively worse the farther away I shoot. The rifle returned to zero almost perfectly which is interesting and proves to me that the Millett TRS turret adjustments are not true 1/4" adjustments any longer. Not sure why they used to be correct and now they're not. Maybe i'm just crazy. I've found that i can adjust my MV way low in JBM and my ballistic app i can achieve the results I found in the trajectory validation. Since the scope consistently returned to zero from large amounts of adjustment I can live with this outcome. Next scope purchase will be a middle of the road as far as cost is concerned. Any suggestions? [/QUOTE]
