EV2 General advice

[morose]

I'm going to post a new thread at some point coz there is something that doesn't add up with my set up...

I got EV with EB ...a 40mm centre to centre...780fps, I'm zero'd at 39yds and I'm getting 8yds at -1 mildot it should be -1.5 mildots...just don't get it.

25yds is 0.9 mildots and 45yds is -0.5 mildots really odd aim points

Droop compensated rail on the EV2

What??

[morose]

The rear scope rail on the EV2 is set slightly higher than the front.

ev2's,
well morose's any way,
his bdc setting really messed with my balistics programme.

the droop on the rail makes a big difference.

Mmm...so I shouldn't have shimmed my mounts then?

I wouldn't have thought that the sloping rail/shimming would make any difference to the aimpoints on a mildot - just where the turret position would be for the zero . The only issue is calculating the LOS height above bore isn't it?

I've just had a look at chairgun. I had measured 40mm but on remeasuring it I realised its 38mm which according to chairgun makes 0.5 mildot difference in the aim point at 8yds. That would explain a lot.

Wow was I right

You were... I hadn't realised before how much difference 2mm would make..
