[QUOTE="Euler, post: 1980467, member: 107601"] About 1/4 MOA of SD at 500 could be possible, but seems fairly large. Also a very minor breeze could account for a portion (or all of it) of it, and some cant could also account for a small portion. But I agree, not worth worrying about at this point. As far as elevation discrepancy, I wouldn't touch BC at 500 yards. Double/triple check all initial inputs in your solver (environmentals & rifle set-up). Confirm your LRF is accurate an not set to meters or something simple. Check your scope to ensure it is actually tracking correctly. I'd also say get yourself a 100 yard zero instead of 200 yards zero to further remove errors. From there, tweak your MV to get waterline hits out to 700 yards (give or take), confirm at 100 yard intervals, and tweak BC at the furthest distance you can shoot (if necessary). [/QUOTE]
