[QUOTE="henschman, post: 2559933, member: 4235"] Not a no go, but it will be tougher no doubt... though that setup would excel for some of the other stages. If you know your muzzle velocity, bullet weight, ballistic coefficient, and sight-over-bore height, you can plug the numbers into one of the many free ballistic calculators online and get some very accurate dope. Most programs have some of the most common loads already in the system, so if you just give it a somewhat close muzzle velocity, it will give you a very accurate trajectory. Your best bet is to chrono it, or in a pinch just run some searches or post a thread on arfcom or m4c and see what other people with similar setups are getting for MV with whatever type of ammo you're using. Of course it's best to confirm your zero at actual distance, but remember we're talking about a full torso target... the elevation setting you get from a ballistic calculator will be good enough for a hit. Whether you have the skill to pull off slightly under 4 MOA from a field position with the possibility of wind is up to you! [/QUOTE]
