    it seems low. if u zero'd @ 150 your drop would be roughly 2inches @ 200

    210 yards will give you a 4.5" drop using MV of 3000 and 50gr round, so your not far off

    your not far off the mark, mine shoots zero @ 200, 100 @ 1.5inhigh 300@ 7.5ins high

    A bullets drop is not linear so its hard to predict.

    zero @200y and your 1 1/2" high @100y

    Have you checked your zero again at 100yrds . I had the
    Same problem a few weeks back. I missed a fox at 200yrds
    Was so sure i hit him that i spent 2 hours looking for him the
    Next day. I checked my zero at 100yrds maybe 10mm low.
    Checked it at 200yrds 170mm low . Zero was 100% to start
    With . I use a scope mounted lamp, pretty sure putting gun
    In and out of the van with the lamp on, knocked of my zero
    Slightly

    Hey Gunning,
    If its any use to you, just testfired one a few days ago and this was the result.
    100 = 0
    200 = -2"
    300 = -9.5"
    400 = -25.5"
    500 = -53.5"
    CZ 527, Burris fullfield II, 55g V Max. very accurate too.
