    With 90% of modern boat tail projectiles a pretty much perfect drop chart is calculated with just these 4 things.

    1. Confirm if the scope actually tracks correctly by clicking against a grid at 100y (first thing to confirm)
    2. Confirm ctr of scope to ctr of bore accurately (measure using calipers)
    3. Litz G7 BC for projectile (a true independently measured BC)
    4. Confirm average MV using radar

    If you’re using a correctly setup radar to measure MV it’s a solid, given input and should rarely ever be changed.

    Personally I’d be ditching the Accubonds and trying something else. There are much better options out there for LR.

    I understand some people are using these successfully however you’re certainly not the first to have issues like this with these.
