[QUOTE="CliffM, post: 790427, member: 11533"] On the Vortex home page there is the LRBC calculator which allows you to enter the data for your rifle and it calculates a drop chart off that. Another tab there gives the drops for their different reticules. That will give you a starting point to verify the actual drops for yours. With a standard duplex reticule I sighted everything in at 2"high at 100yds, that keeps the high point in the trajectory no higher than 2". With some faster cartridges it can end up being a 250yd zero. That is just my preference to keep from hitting too high at closer ranges. The ballistic calculator will let you play with different trajectories so you can see what suits your type of shooting the best. Cliff [/QUOTE]
