I went shooting out in the desert this weekend. I took my remington 700 vsf .308, and a box of reloads I had put together a few days prior. I also had several large cardboard pieces (3'x4' or so), and some silhouette targets to tape to them. I then proceeded to walk out to 100,200,300,400,500,and 600yds and placed the targets. I came back to where I had set up to shot, and got into the prone. I pulled out my Droid and entered all the info into the "Shooter" ballistic program. Temp, humidity, elevation, distance, degree of decline (fairly small maybe 3-4%). I had previously entered all the ammo info, and info from my rifle. I lasered the farthest target and got almost exactly 600yds. I put the info form Shooter onto my rifle, and aimed center mass. I fired my first shot (cold bore) and watched my round impact about 3ft in front of the target, and approx 1ft to the right of the target (I never have been very good at reading wind lol ). I was surprised to say the least. I thought for sure that using all of that data, the ballistics program could at least put my first round on paper...
Has anyone else had this problem? Am I doing something incorrect?
