Hmm.. You are basing your 1200 on 2700 fps. It is not going to happen, that is 15,7 mils or 53 MOA, you are going to be around 1025fps at best and the bullet will wobbling all over the place. you have got to push the bullet quicker or look for a longer barrel.
Might have some spare 168SMKs Dave....a sure winning formula clapclap
