[QUOTE="JAnderson94, post: 975139, member: 72099"] Hi guys. Yesterday I was shooting at what I believe was 320 yards. Shooting crappy fmj ammo to get some brass for reloading. They chrono about 3,075fps out of my ar. I am using a vortex hst 4-16x44 with mil reticle and mil adjust. I just swapped scopes so I zeroed at 20 yards then went to 320. I was holding two mills high to hit at 320. So is my math right when I use. .36" as 1/10th of a mil at 100 yards. Then times that by 21 clicks (what I used when I dialed and stuck crosshairs on target instead of holdover.) Then times that number by 3.2 for the 320 yards I'm shooting??? Because that's a hair over 24 inches and that seems like excessive drop at 320 yards for a 223. Edit: forgot to add that scope was set on 16 power also Thanks, James [/QUOTE]
