Just got my NF back with the new MOAR reticle. Did the reticle perpendicularity test. Fired, turned down 10 MOA and fired again. Right on the line. The distance however was 10 .375" not 10.47". My question is. Is this enough discrepancy to warrant making a correction in my Shooter app for long distances or is it within the range of error for all the other possible errors

Soldier on.

The only way to make the change is to fire more than one round at multiple distances. One shot doesn't tell you enough.

Correct me if I am wrong, but that is only roughly a inch difference at 1000 yards. I would not worry about it, unless I was shooting for score on paper
