Hey guys, just moving into a set up I plan to dial and trying to figure a few things out. I picked up a Tikka 223, put it in a rokstock and topped it with an RS 1.2 in UM rings. Gun shoots great at 100 yards and is zeroed.
Heading up north where I can stretch its legs a bit later this week but am a bit confused looking at drop on ballistics apps from different sources.
Starting with basic quick drop using ELDMs which mean standard base, thats not close to what either the Hornady app or AB Quantum show, adding the .5 Correction factor for a slow gun matches AB but still way off from Hornady. Any thoughts on why AB and Hornady App would be so different and what I should start with as a base to work from? I am guessing the AB numbers which match the quick drop base with a correction, weird Hornady would be so far off though on one of their own factory loadings.
Edit, the table I posted didnt work
Quick drop
200-.5
300-1
400-2
500-3
Quick drop with Correction
200-.5
300-1.5
400-2.5
500-3.5
Hornady App

300-1.5
400-2.7
500-4.1
AB Quantum
