One of them was quite arrogaant about it too, especially when I insisted that I shot my rifle at 100 yards too. Turned out it was 7" high. He was astonished, because he had never checked it before....


Something just doesn't seem right with those figures..If you took the same rifle/load combination, and zero'd it 2" high at 100 yards, those figures indicate it would be 5" low at 25yards..

What rifle and load was it?
