The white box are actually traveling closer to 3700fps. In order to have that kind of drop his bullet would have to be traveling at 2400fps...I just can't see that being the case, unless he's firing the 22-250 rounds out of a 243 barrel. If you're questioning me about this move back to 300, if your speed really is that slow you should be about 20" low.
Quote:I'd like to hear how a scope can be out of line or something to cause the POI to appear low at 200 and OK at 100.
It can't! If the rifle is holding zero @ 100yds and it's not hit, bumped, adjusted or anything between shooting at 100 and 200 there is nothing that can make his bullet impact low at the fault of the scope. I would be willing to put up 6 months pay to say it isn't the rifle, scope, or ammo...just sayin'.
