[QUOTE="emp1953, post: 1785992, member: 71817"] Draw on a piece of paper a starting point, your rifle, and an end point your 100 yd target. Draw a straight line from one to the other, or what you think is a straight line. Tape a couple of pieces of paper to the one you've drawn on and put an end mark your 500 yd target lined up as best you can behind the first "target". Extend the original line that you drew. More than likely that line will not be in the center of the 500 yd target. What ever error you have closer, in this case 1/2" is magnified over distance or 5x. I probably tried to simplify this too much to the point where it doesn't make sense. Read up on MOA and how 100yd MOA equates to 500yd MOA and 1000yd MOA. [/QUOTE]
