When I held at the very tip of the triangle at 4 mil mark I was hitting every time. Precision...probably not, acceptable to me...yep
JW:
So you went back to your 100 yard zero? If so, 4 mils come up should be a hit at 500.
It isn't magic. Most every modern target cartridge today needs 12 - 14 minutes of elevation between 100 and 500. The differences between cartridges exists but is measured in the 1 minute or so range when shooting at 500 yards. Past 500 yards is where a person sees enough difference that they need to be pretty precise in their elevation. However, if they get a solid zero at 500 yards my bet is that if they indexed another 14 minutes on the elevation that they would get hits at 750 yards on a two minute target.
Anyway, once you get some chrono data and input it into your app, and then shoot and compare things, I bet you will be around 14 minutes of elevation between 500 and 750 with your Grendel cartridge and that you will get hits on a two minute 750 yard distant target.
