[QUOTE="djtjr, post: 1094441, member: 13195"] Guys I'm doing a tough mountain hunt in August and wanted to take a lighter weight sheep gun with me. I have 2 guns that would work well and both carry a Zeiss Conquest 4.5-14 with target Turrets on them. The issue is that the click value on the scopes is .25 INCH @ 100 Yards rather than .25 MOA @ 100 Yards. For the first hundred or 2 yards that doesn't matter much but both are capable of accuracy at 5 and 600 yds and thats where the .047" difference between true inches and MOA starts to come into play when making my drop charts because all software i have seen and have is in MOA. Is there a software that will do true .25 inch clicks rather than MOA? If not how do i calculate for that difference so i can be spot on at the longer distances rather than a few inches off? I don't love the idea of messing with velocity inputs to get them to line up as my OCD would drive me crazy and while that may work on one range I wonder if it would cause issues in the program when heading to altitude? Any thoughts. Lets assume Ive verified that its a true .25". [/QUOTE]
