Not sure that’s accurate: You’re shooting a 143eldx just over 2700 fps and it’s still above 2000 fps at 1000yds?

That does seem like a fair amount of velocity still

I have yet to punch in local environmentals, but it'll only get better when I calculate for Wyoming altitudes.

Thats more velocity at 1000yds than my 230 Berger with a muzzle velocity of 2990 fps

That seems much more believable

Oh, wait. Hang on.... no I'm not. I'm shooting a 140eldm (facepalm) sorry.

With a 1:8 not 1:12 twist.

 

[robtattoo]

So what the hell am i doing wrong???

I think that BC is wrong for starters

 

[robtattoo]

Hang on.
I've figured out out. I've got the G1 BC plugged in as G7. Duh.

More proof that attention to small details matter.

Sorry.
