[QUOTE="Starlite, post: 2269256, member: 112246"] OP, Not that this is in any way an answers to your question; as I already commented on what formula I would use. But more of a suggestion on this technique to save bullets and give you how many clicks (mils or MOA). with your rifle supported (lead-sled etc;) 1. take up your same POA and don’t let the rifle move. 2. Take note what click value your scope dials are at and write them down for ref in case you get distracted and/or forget. Or more importantly if things go a muck. you’ll at least be able to get back to the last shot. This is a wisdom talking point. OK next: 3. Move your reticle to your last impact. You can do both wind and elevation at once to save yourself a shot or just the Y or X axis At a time. My advice would be only adjust the wind dial especially if your only shooting a little low / high @ 63Yd. Make your final elevation adjustment once you get to your final zeroed range (actual or ballistic/calculated (like whats listed on a box of ammunition if you know what I mean. 4.Now re-aim back to your last POA and shoot. If you did your Part and the rifle is an accurate one then you hit that axis spot 5. count the difference in Clicks. This part is really more of a teaching point of how many mils/MOA you moved. Good luck on your milling journey. IMHO it’s (when paired up with the metric system) the easiest way to navigate with a simple non-mil rad scope (like a simple cross hair reticle) at the range. With a mil/mil scope or a MOA/MOA if you can read your reticle correctly you’ll always have the easier way to communicate shots so as to get on target. what ever works. Just make sure you and the spotter are on the same page too. Mil-mil or MOA-MOA. Nothing worse then someone saying 3 clicks left on the MOA dial when your on a mil rad dial. Been there. Came in last.
