[QUOTE="bluedog69, post: 2281920, member: 118823"] If they are cm squares you can go up 8 clicks and put the groups about 3 cm above bull. Here is a chart for 100 grain velocities. Better than nothing. Barely better. LOL [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.barnesbullets.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/6.5Creedmoor.pdf[/URL] Anyway if you search web enough you can surely come up with ballistic chart. Here is what I did for a buddy of mine. Took his 300 win mag (zero experience on my part) loaded some up then went by Winchester 180 grain factory drop chart. I put it about 1.75” high at 100. Then took 3 shots at 400. I used the chart to dial in 5 moa(20 inches at 400 using Winchester data on box). My hand loads were a shade hotter and only needed 4 MOA at 400. So in about 9 shots I had it MOD at 400. (minute of deer) [/QUOTE]
