Astral Construct attack, wrong bonus?

Is the to hit bonus wrong with the Astral Constructs? When I calculate them and compare them to what's actually listed there seems to be a mysterious -2 I can't account for. For example, from the srd:
(http://www.wizards.com/d20/files/v35/PsionicMonsters.rtf)
-I get the same thing for the other levels of astral constructs, btw-

2ND-LEVEL ASTRAL CONSTRUCT

Initiative: +2

So bab +3 and str +3 and size +0 = +6 Slam total, and not +4 right? What am I missing?? I'm going nuts, I was at it last night and this morning as well... I just know that it's something really simple I'm overlooking and that I am going to violently kick myself later on when I discover what it is. :heh:

Actually, just the Base Attack is wrong. A 2-HD construct has a BAB of +1 (as a 2nd-level cleric). All other numbers are correct.

Thanks for the quick replies... so it was a wrong print, sigh. I never knew a construct had a bab like cleric of same hitdie or lvl. Where can I find more info like that? I can't recall reading it anywhere...
