Chris, what muzzle velocity and bullet did you use to get .63" low?

I used one of the "factory" loads in the program. Here's what they have:
Federal FMJBT, 55gr, BC=0.272, and MV=3150
I'm curious how close the program is to "real" numbers. If you have anything to compare it to, that would be great.

I have always have good results with "Shoot v. 2.5".
I trust it to give accurate numbers. The variable you really have to watch is the sight offset value that you can set for your gun. If it is correct, you are good to go, but if it is off, it will screw up your values for all ranges.
Here is the process:

Ahhh, I see that we are talking about 75 grain HPBT from a Colt, but at such close ranges, it shouldn't make much difference, although you can disregard the last image.
