    Range Report two different calibers - one zero ?

    Re: two different calibers - one zero ? Other things play a role in a good zero, besides bullet drop. Machine tolerance and barrel harmonics effect zero at 100 more the drop. There is no way to calculate these other than shooting paper.

    Re: IMR 8208 guys shooting 168's, what's your ES? Rye, I played with 8208 in 2 of my AR's as well, (actually based off a recommendation from you). A couple of things I did notice was that is more temp sensitve than varget. Also it seemed to like to be ran very near max pressure. I noted a...
