[QUOTE="Greyfox, post: 1462154, member: 10291"] Having observed this myself, I have done some comparisons between the Sig 2400, Shooter, Applied Ballistics, and my Gunwerks G7. Generally, I have found comparable output values for evaluation to as far as 1350 yards. This assumes that the wind inputs for all devices/calculators are set to “0” wind speed, and, the values for density/air pressure are the same. Setting the Wind value to “0” negates corrections for aerodynamic jump. Using this approach, algorithms appear give the same outputs. At times, differences in output may show up based on the Ballistic RF’s internal capability to determine atmospherics. Any difference in the atmospheric values will show differences in elevation output at the longer ranges. When differences show more often then not, the Sig 2400 is odd man out when compared to my Kestral and G7 RF. This could be my particular unit, but it seems to struggle at times, particularly at the extremes in my typical hunting conditions. The other difference is that the Sig 2400 and AB Ballistic calculators correct for aerodynamic jump. This feature effects outputs for elevation and wind drift. The only way to check the validity of these different values is to verify actual results at long range. I’m personally not yet sold on the the aerodynamic jump capability. These values can easily differ by .5MOA for elevation, and wind drift at the longer ranges. I find that my values outputted by my G7 and Shooter/Kestral are very accurate when verified at my typical hunting ranges to 1100 yards. At the longer distances I will apply my own mental adjustments for spin drift, and coreolis. The key is to verify your devise/method to the maximum range in use. [/QUOTE]
