Hey everyone! I'm new to shooting longer range! I have a sig kilo8k with applied Ballistics, and i have Strelok Pro. I have entered all the information about my gun into these calculators. I have a a Desert tech Srs M2 in .338 Lapua. Its a awesome gun and I love it.
My question is: If I'm zeroed at 100 yds and seem to be shooting high at 500 (haven't had time to really verify on a piece of paper) what exactly do I change on the calculator to get more dialed? I have heard of changing bullet coefficient and also FPS. If this is the case what way do I change these things to get better out come? How do I choose between fps and Bullet CO? Which way do I adjust these numbers to get the proper bullet movement?
I have had a hard time researching the proper answer for this and all the videos and articles I've looked into only barley touch the subject. Once I know what I'm doing ill go shoot targets at 500, 1000, and 1500 to try and get more dialed.
The reason I think I'm high is because i shot over a deer at 530 yards twice, then i aimed at bottom of his shoulder and nailed him dead on in lungs. I'm guessing I'm 6-8" high but will confirm once i knew the remade to fix the situation.
Thank you
