Not really. You are simply falling into the technocrat trap. Not seeing the forest from the trees.
Your target at 700 is two minutes. 14 inches. In your first post you said the differences between the various programs was .2 mils. .2 mils is about 3/4 of one minute. Any of your programs would give you a hit on the target somewhere and apparently all of them are pretty much center.
If I were you and I couldn't get to that exact range and shoot that exact target, I would average the differences in your programs and use the result for an elevation. Just understand that no matter what one of the computer programs spits out, your particular rifle and ammo combination may not match up.
If you go into your competition focused on the insignificant differences of elevation between your computer programs, you will not perform well. And most likely you will not be real happy about it.
Use the computer for what it is worth, a pretty decent estimation of elevation. Then you are allowing yourself to focus on the important things that are more likely to bring success. Such as position, wind doping, the shot(s), and maybe even spotting trace through your optic which is quite possible with the Grendel.
