[QUOTE="bedrok, post: 677512, member: 25202"] Good info Alan, Thanks for posting it. Leica didn't include a curve that comes close to what I need. I compared curve #2 to shooter for a .284 160gr. Accubond at 2960 (I've verified Shooters data with actual drop and it's right on). #2 is the closest but not near close enough. It's flatter than Shooter to 600yds, at which point it matches, then drops drastically. I'm wondering where they came up with their choices for the curves. It's a good unit but I'm afraid their holdover mode will be used by very few shooters. I compared Shooters data for various loads for .338 Lapua and 33/378 (theoretical because I don't own one yet) and they all fall between Leicas #1 and #2, not close enough to use. [/QUOTE]
