[QUOTE="SteelBanger, post: 1905807, member: 112192"] That's good to know, and that changes my scope height from 1.5" to 2.75". When I make that change in my ballistics app and put the updated BC in there it takes my 2.2 mil drop to 1.9 mils. Still not quite to the 1.7 I was shooting but if my math is right at 400y that's only about a 2.88" difference. I was just banging steel for fun and not trying for ultimate precision so I'm going to call that 2.88" within a margin for error. Next time out i'll be more intentional with everything and try to dial it in precisely, but I'm pretty happy with everything now. My scope has always tracked to my drop and back to zero perfectly so I've never had the desire to test it, but it'd be wise to verify it anyway. Thank you so much for your help, made a big difference in my understanding of things which should ultimately show up in my down range results! [/QUOTE]
