[QUOTE="Topshot, post: 298565, member: 13285"] While waiting for my rifle and NF scope combo, I had to make do with my .338WM and Burris 3-9x40 Ballistic Plex reticle. Now my scope could handle the recoil OK and never moved, but as I did not think that the turret adjustments would handle a lot of work. This is what I did. I sighted my rifle in at 220 yards then Bar 1 = 280yds, Bar 2 = 280yds, Bar 3 = 480yds and top of post = 580yds. I then made up a corrected drop chart for a single, 10 MOA alteration to my scope turret. My new cross hair zero started about where my top of post left off at 570yds. So Bar 1 = 600yds, Bar 2 = 680yds, Bar 3 = 760yds and top of post = 840yds. So with one simple turret adjustment of 10 MOA by the dial, I had a drop chart that works out to 840yds with the basic Burris Ballistic Plex cross bars. [/QUOTE]
