[QUOTE="EXPRESS, post: 19017, member: 1441"] I have a question that I basically answer for myself, but I would like to post it and get more input. My NP-R2 reticle has hash marks at 2MOA increments. (2MOA @100yards) So at a the given 24x setting for this to be relative and true, I thought that at 200yards I should get 4MOA worth of holdover the the first increment, or approx. 12 inches. At 400yards, the frist hash mark down gives me 8 MOA of holdover and so on and so forth. Right? I don't think so. With a 109 yard(100m) zero shooting a .47BC 167gn @ 2686 I should be 11.3MOA low at 500 yards, meaning that I can assume tha bullet strike to be between the 1st and 2nd hash marks. At 11MOA. What confused me is that the same program that gave me the tradjectory in MOA gives me 59 inches of drop at 500yards. So without doing any real testing, just by lining up spots 500yards away I see that it looks like that 2MOA mark is 2MOA at all distances. At 500yards, the first mark down looks like being 10inches, meaning 2MOA. So I count down 5 hash marks to the 10MOA point, and I have what looks like approx 60inches (4.9ft) go another half hash mark and I am at 11MOA. Does it sounds like I'm on the right track now?
