[QUOTE="lightwind, post: 530588, member: 30140"] Try going to their web site and see if they post their testing conditions. If you don't have a chronograph, you might go to your favorite gun shop and ask if they have any contacts that might go out and measure your speed with you. My gun range used to have a chronograph but someone shot it up too many times so now we have to find someone with one or buy our own. You will run into this problem every time you get different ammo and also if you load your own so I would recommend finding someone to help you out. This is a common problem with ballistic calculators when you plug in standard numbers. They are great if you get the numbers right but can really cause a problem if you don't. The bottom line is to practice (as you are doing) before hunting season. [/QUOTE]
