For those of you who shoot these, I need some sight tape help.
20 yards at Test, each 10 yards after that steps at 8 lines (30 is 8, 40 is 16, 50 is 24 and 60 is 32). I would have thought this would be a somewhat normal progression.
When I line up tapes to the index card, I find that I can get 20 and 60 to match, but the others are off. Or I can get 20/30/40 to match and 50 is about 1 yard off, but 60 appears to be 3 yards or so.
I am for certain on 20 and 30 be dead on, 40 might be 1/2 yard either way but pretty consistent. After looking at the tapes and thinking through the general physics, it seems like the 2nd tape mentioned above might be closer to reality as I shoot Axis 5mm at 517 grains, so flat to begin with but as I get further out, they would slow down. Therefore the spacing should change a little.
I do know they offer a custom tape designer but, given I haven't changed arrows and I'm not sure I am going to, I don't really want to pay $10 for something I won't use.
Logical or am I missing a step?
