[QUOTE="jmden, post: 1036422, member: 1742"] Bryan, I think I understand what you are saying. But, at the ranges suggested (especially 3500+ yards for the second range), I don't even have a way, (and I'm not sure of anyone who does) to measure that accurately, let alone a place to shoot that far and then come the issues and myriad of variables of whether or not the data I might collect (even at the closer range 1 near the transonic range of the rifle) is valid. In short, I really wonder how practical and how valid a test this could be at suggested range 1, let alone range 2 or 3. So, I understand what u are saying theoretically, but I wonder about the practicality of those ranges. Now, perhaps this is simple minded, but what I was looking more for in this kind of calibration feature is say my V2 says I'm at 2981fps so I go out to validate that at long range at say 900 and 1300 yds and find I'm 1/2 minute high at both ranges. I can then putz around manually entering velocities to get drops to match or the program can have a function that finds that velocity that matches the drops for me. That's more of what I'm looking for. Do I have a basic misunderstanding of what's going on here? [/QUOTE]
