[QUOTE="backwoods83, post: 458530, member: 29890"] get your rifle sighted in dead nuts at 100 yrds, then loosen the set screws on the turrets, set them to 0 and tighten the set screws. depending on ammo 200 yrdsa will be 10-12 clicks up 300 will be 19-21 clicks up 400 yrds will be about 34-36 clicks up, and i wouldnt worry to much about windage unless your shooting further or you have some killer wind drifts. but hornady.com has a calculator in there ballistics resource that will put you in the ball park. just remember that just because it says the bullet drops 6 inches at a given distance, you do not need anywhere near that much come up in moa to compensate.
