    After finding the calculated drops in shooter where off after about 600-700 yards and just getting worse out to 1000, I have started using the multi BC / velocity feature of shooter to correct my drops over distance. I did this by recording my drops at my locale range from 300 to 1000 yards then started adjusting the BC of the bullet at 500fps increments, difference starting at 3000fps and working down to 1500fps.
    I have now found by doing this the calculated drops are within cooee of the real bullet drops.
