[QUOTE="stomp442, post: 853309, member: 70571"] The problem with the G1 is that it is very velocity dependant. The b.c. you are getting at the muzzle may be .531 but that is not the b.c. you are getting at 700 yards. When calculating an accurate ballistic chart you really should use the G7 b.c. with a bullet matching the G7 standard projectile shape. Also an accurate scope height is needed and needs to be factored into the ballistic solution. The only other thing I can think of is updraft of wind current affecting the bullet impact. Different atmospheric conditions can change things too. Lots of variables come into play from day to day. [/QUOTE]
