    Remington 700 .308 20 in 1/10 twist.

    I am running 175gr MK w/44.4gr of Varget at 2618 FPS according to my Magnetospeed. Strelok show this drops to 1204 FPS at 900 yards.
    Zero weather 54.2F 30.15 inHg.

    I am looking at the TMK which if I can hold the same velocity, Strelok shows I can get to 1050 yds dropping to 1230 FPS.

    Am I missing something in the calculations? It seems to good to be true that the slightly higher BC is going to make that much difference.
