I'm trying to figure this out. I have a Pedersoli 1874 Sharps repro. I installed a globe front and vernier rear on it. My sight radius is 36" and the graduations on the sight are in tenths. With that one graduation will move my POI 10" @ 100 yards. My load ballistics show that at 400 yards I have a 125" drop with a 100 yard zero. My correction is 30.4 MOA. If my thinking is correct I should move my vernier just a tad over 3 graduations (0.3"). Does this sound correct?
