Running it through Hornady 4DoF and StrelokPro, I get 18moa at 1000ft DA (not actual elevation, DA) out of both calculators, so 18.5 would have to be very low elevation, as in negative 1500ft density altitude. I’ve shot in negative DA’s, but never -1500ft. But like I mentioned, these proven calculators will have you within 2 clicks, half MOA, so a discrepancy between yours and mine of 5” at 700 isn’t so surprising (or maybe you really are shooting -1500ft DA?).
my elevation here is between 1300 and 2000 ft. Not sure what DA means and definitely don't know what a-day is!? My BC according to Hornady is .625 and my MV is 2640
