[QUOTE="Dave King, post: 54628, member: 3"] Chad I use a standard set of come-up as a base set. For a 308 Win I remember these numbers: 2, 3, 3.5, 3.5, 4, 4.5, 5, 6, 7 These are base come-ups for ranges to 1000 yards beginning at 200 and ending at 1000. These are cumulative values and must be added to one another as the range increases. So, with a 100 yard zero I ADD 2 MOA to get to 200 yards. To get 300 yard dope I add 2 + 3 to get 5 and put that 5 MOA value on the scope. At 500 yards I need a "foot" (12 MOA) (2+3+3.5+3.5) of correction. To get from 300 yards to 1000 yards I'd add 3.5, 3.5, 4, 4.5, 5, 6, and 7 for a total of 33.5 MOA of up or about 335 inches of correction at 1000 yards. Your post of 350 inches of correction from 300 yards to 1000 yards is about correct. [/QUOTE]
