[QUOTE="Bravo 4, post: 1777326, member: 8873"] If you play around with the ballistic calculator you will see exactly what your particular differences will be for your rifle/load, it will be different with different bullets at different velocities. Depending on the load, you will see out to some pretty decent ranges it takes a large change in environmentals to make a change worth worrying about. Check it out and just use it to the range you are comfortable with it to make your label. Like I said, leave the actual numbers on the turret exposed if possible and run with that when you are not comfortable with the amount of variance. Added: I just punched in the numbers for my .300 Rum at sea level (home) and then where I hunt elk (8k +) and it was only a few inches out to 600. That’s a big change, now do the same with temp and it may add a little more. Check it out for yourself. [/QUOTE]
