[QUOTE="Flintlock shooter, post: 1849294, member: 105834"] As mentioned, make sure your scope is tracking correctly and that you have correct inputs in your ballistics calculator. Accurate MV measurement is next and very critical. MV can be verified by shooting on a small target at around 400-450 yards. I use a 5" circle at 420. Make sure you are centered top to bottom on that. MV will give you accuracy out to 600-650 yards. After that, BC is going to take over. Work your way out 100 yards at a time. If you are hitting consistently high, you will need to raise your BC....low impacts require lowering BC. When you are doing this, it is important to make elevation corrections until you are on the waterline of the target. Then change your BC value until your solver gives you the elevation that matches what is on your turret. Feel free to message me if you'd like. A phone conversation might be a good idea. [/QUOTE]
