LRPS Scope bug

[RudeMood]

Im not sure if its just me but whenever I shoot something zerod at a certian range it always hits 1/3 down. For example, there is a guy standing exactly 500m out at the same altitude. I zero for 500m but my shot lands 1/3 mil down. This goes for ranges all the way to 1800m. I really like distance sniping but it bugs me that im not accually using the mil dots as intended. I even created a spreadsheet of ranges of where to aim at certian ranges. Im thinking it could be my video settings but im not sure. If anyone can help it would mean a lot.

If you understand the zeroing, then you should be good. Also, it depends on the weapon/caliber being used. I can't remember the name of it, but it's a larger caliber weapon(I think the 12.7mm). BUT, the distance is garbage and the drop off is really short.<<Maybe the issue?

I don't understand the need for a spreadsheet...if you know the distance to a target, zero to said target, aim center mass, and fire. If needed, adjust aim/zero and fire again.

I'm not sure, but I really don't think the video settings has any adjustment on how the game ballistics work.

Maybe try a different long range optic?

Sounds like a weapon issue(using a subsonic?), using the scope with intended weapons (MAR-10, Cyrus,M320 or Lynx) is usually dead-on.

Maybe. I've used the mM320 for sniping the whole time I've played arma.

I made the spreadsheet due to the m320 .408 shots not landing quite where I can predict. I tested out ranges such as 300, 325, 350, 375... all the way through 2675m testing diferences in 25, 50, 75 meters.

I found that shots at exactly 300, 400, 500 meters are not where the center of the crosshair is even if zerod. It hits just a small bit down about -1/3 mils. for 325, 425, 525 meters the shot landed about -7/10 mildots down. for the 350, 450 and 550 meters the hits were about -1 1/5 mils down. In conclusion I thought that shots would hit more accurately when using the mil dots being -1 mil down +50m and half a mil dot being +25m.
