Good shooting there Mr. Semisane. But darn it you did it (rather didn't do it) again. You could have turned your power down on your scope just a wee bit and I bet you would have been at the right elevation. I mean as long as you're playing you can also gain some knowledge about what power to put your scope and what stadia bar to use at those long ranges.
Try to make a mental note next time. Or better yet, put a not in your shooting box!
