[QUOTE="joseph, post: 382997, member: 19151"] I finally put a 20 MOA Picatinney rail on my rifle. I have always had my rifles sighted in at POI at 100 yards. I have only shot out to about 300 yards and only used hold over. Now that I am planning to shoot way past 300 yards it seems difficult to hold over when sighted in at 200 yards and the bullet will drop like a rock past 600 yards. I haven't shot that far yet, but it seems a lot different holding over when the bullet is rising first and then falls after it reaches its height. When sighted at 100 yards it is fairly flat then drops which seems natural to me. Am I making any sense? It is hard to explain. I know that I can be confident with the drop chart after I "dope" it out. Maybe someone can help me out? :) joseph [/QUOTE]
