Drop chart

Yes JBM showed very similar numbers at close and midrange. I have my data in front of me now and it is
-4.41@300 act=-5.5
-11.2 [MENTION=80736]500[/MENTION] act = -11.6
The scope height is within .1" The results are from multiple days summer/winter and multiple ranges, several shot groups (using posted yardages, my LRF is not 500 capable) The scope tracking was verified to be correct when purchased less than 2 years ago
Atmospheric condition at the shorter ranges tend to change the 500+ dope but that is not the one I am having trouble with.
I have played with the numbers (away from the measured data) to see if I could duplicate the actual drop. I could not find an input that would duplicate range results. 175 smk @2640 Scope height 2.1" <---this is the guts of it you want to try your calculator. Yes my Chrono could be giving incorrect data....but the trajectory does not seem logical. we have 4+ verified data points on the arc
0 @-2.1"
100 @ 0"
300 @ -5.5"
500 @-11.6"
525 @-12.0"
Can any one get a 175 SMK to duplicate the data about by changing any of the inputs?

not an attempt of pooing on your thread:
much like a sequel to a meatloaf song, "3 out of 4 ain't bad". i know quirks can sometimes drive you crazy, and would like resolution to the "why"....but you have 3 accurate data points and the fourth one is confirmed in reality, add it to the chart and move on.
no matter how good the calculator, it's still a "guide" in virtual reality, not 100% reliable in reality. in a perfect world i should be bill gates' heir, but unable to cash the check as i am on motley crues' farewell tour as mick mars back up guitarist.
