[QUOTE="el matador, post: 1322292, member: 12193"] I don't understand how you're using the ballistic calculator in this situation. Normally you would use such a thing to determine the scope adjustments for shooting at distances beyond your sight-in range. At 100 yards you can just use some math and measure how much your point of impact should be moving. Since 1 radian is equal to the distance you're shooting at, simply divide that number by 1000 to get 1 milliradian (or 10,000 to get 0.1 mrad). 100 yards (3600 inches) divided by 1000 makes 3.6" per mrad. For scopes with 0.1 mrad clicks that equals 0.36" per click. So from your zero if you come up 10 mrad you should be hitting 36" high on the tall target. 9 mrad = 32.4" and 5 mrad = 18". What were the actual measurements of your groups above the bullseye? [/QUOTE]
