You need to always remember those specs are basedon sea level. Up here where we are, ignore them or use them as a baseline. I am at 5000ft here inAlbuquerque, If your at 8000, your DA on an average summer day is going to be close to or at 10,000ft. I suggest what Will Robison said and go with a 72.
