[QUOTE="TheLongRanger83702, post: 1632261, member: 88760"] One reason might be you mounted a crappy scope and know adjusting the turrets as part of your ballistic solution cant be trusted. I think more importantly is to sight in under the same meteorlogical conditions might have a more relevant impact on your actual shot placement. Sighting is during the summer when it might be 95* outside might be a wasted effort if your hunting in 35* weather. What about the differences in altitude and/or humidity? You can go to Hornady.com and plug in your information to see what the impact on these variables might be. I used the Hornady site and created range cards for both of the rifles I hunt with in 25 yard increments. Used in conjunction with my Sig Saur 2400 Rangefinder, I have great confidence afield. Happy Trails! [ATTACH=full]133550[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
