[QUOTE="PvtMcCollam, post: 765651, member: 64580"] Ok I have been interested in shooting long ranges for a while and have been building me a new rig. I have a remington sps long range rifle with a 26" barrel with a twist rate of 9 1/8" with a Zeiss Conquest 6.5-20x50 AO MC and a Bushnell XRS Elite tactical 4.5-30x50 scopes (cant make up my mind on what one to put on the rifle). I want to shoot at distances of 100-1,200 yards. I plan on zeroing at 200 yards. I have for to five different rounds that I have even reloaded looking for the most accurate. For teaching perposes can somebody show me how to adjust the dope on my scope from a 200 yard zero for a few different yards and different senarios with 180gr Honaday Superformance round. I know that the best thing is practice and thats exactly what I am gonna do, but i would like to know the math required to make a shot especially at 1,000 yards. Thanks a whole lot, and hopefully soon i will be out shooting those long ranges gun) [/QUOTE]
