My last range session at the range I was 1 1/4" high at 100 yards which equated to about a 127 yard zero on the JBM trajectory, ( my Zeiss Duralyt actually converts to mills @ 100 yards) indicated I should have a 10.1" drop at 200 yards, ballistics chart said 1.4mills up.
So I fired my load that I've had since November 14th, rotated the BDC turret up 14 clicks (1.4 mils) and hit 12" low! I was shooting off my tailgate but had a Caldwell BR front rest and a Protektor rear bunny - everything was rock solid. I should have fired a verifier but I just walked down to the target expecting to see it near the bull. I had the same thing happen last year when I unloaded at the end of the season using the subtends on my 3-9 Swarovski I had on it last year.
So it's either me, my calculations, or the Barnes 250gr TMZ. I only had about a 2mph crosswind so that wasn't the issue.
