[QUOTE="Fiftydriver, post: 120325, member: 10"] Dakor, One question, why would you add moas into the ring system and still expect to have to dial in the same 110 clicks as you were before when using a standard 0 cant mounting system?? Also, I do not use clicks to determine BC, never have. I use bullet drop numbers. Generally bullet drop data from multipule ranges. THese ranges are generally 100 yards, 500 yards and either 800 or 1000 yards depending on the rifle. I use the muzzle velocity in conjuntion with 100, 500, 800 and or 1000 yard actual bullet drops to get an accurate representation of my bullets actually flight over 1000 yards. Then I plug the data into Exbal including temp, humidity, angle of shot if any, height of scope and finally an estimated BC value to get started. From there I will tweak the BC until the generated ballistic model matches as closely as possible to my actual bullet flight. For the conditions I shoot in, everything is a fixed variable for that time frame except the BC. I adjust this until I get the model to match actual bullet flight. Is this the true scientific BC value, certainly not and I have stated that hundreds of times here on LRH. The numbers I use are BCs developed from bullet drop data and nothing else. Frankly BC is a meaningless term. All we want is a number so that we can develope a drop chart that accurately predicts out bullet flight path over the range we will be shooting. This system works very well for that. Plenty of ballistics experts would not agree with this but MANY critters can attest to its success as well..... No flame taken, and no flame directed at you but I do not use clicks to determine BC, just actual bullet drop.
