iBGP in place of OSPF

I am wishing to use BGP in place of OSPF. One AS, private for now.

If I just simply start adding BGP peers to the network, once I get 3-4 hops out, the IPs start to drop off at the end with TTL issues. Looks like all of the routes are being added at a cost of 200 at every interface vs their internal hop count.

I know Its something stupid but worken late and got up way to earily.

How exactly are you doing this? iBGP needs either a full mesh (of peerings) or a route-reflector setup. I recommend the last one.

Kinda why I am asking. I think I just forgot about the route reflection.
