    I can guarantee this works otherwise you will out clever yourself!
    If you have a kestrel 5700 you have the best ballistic solver on the market.
    I'm using mine daily and it's never wrong as long as you put the right info in

    Yes, the Kestrel 5700 is a wonderful bit of kit. I don’t doubt it for a second, but also use the Hornady BC calculator as cross check when something like this happens.
    I do the scope zeroing at 100 yards, just set to get the POI 1.3in high = 200 yd zero.
