Kestrel Zero Offset/Zero Height (potential) Issue

[InTraining]

Maybe someone can run the below ZO, ZH on their Kestrel 5700 Elite to confirm my Kestrel?

Per Kestrel Manual, group is left .75” and low .75”, therefore input -.75” for ZO and ZH. The solution on my Kestrel is up and left. I know the left is incorrect as the group is already left.

Confirmed 100 yard zero, confirmed wind set at 0 mph for both WS1 and 2 and at 12:00.

If I input the direction I want to move the group, +.75" for both, solution is down and right. This is incorrect as well, group is already down, the right is correct.

Therefore, I’m running ZH as -.75" and ZO as +.75" to get the correct zero, up and right. WTF?

I’ve emailed Applied Ballistics, haven’t heard back.

I implemented it such a negative means "less drop." From the bullet's perspective, there's less drop when the point of impact is up, therefore it's a negative number in the up direction. Sorry if it has led to some confusion. I tend to look at it from the bullet's perspective more often.
