[QUOTE="coyotewillie, post: 2281410, member: 117877"] I've used Hornady's ballistic chart a lot, just google it. Plug in your velocity that you get, your other variables it asks for, and it will spit out your clicks in either MOA or Mils. You'll have to convert to meters/cm's to get figures for your scope. Maybe one of the other ballistic apps will do everything in metric, don't know about others. If you use Hornady I'd print out the results to the longest distance you figure on shooting. Just like any ballistics chart, you'll be CLOSE. You SHOULD true up the comeups by shooting known distances and verifying the figures. I can shoot 800 yds on my home range so I've done that every 100 yds up to 800. I really think you're working at a disadvantage with that scope. [/QUOTE]
