[QUOTE="Mikecr, post: 1205141, member: 1521"] The problem hasn't gone away,, it will show up again. 31 7/8" = 31.875" 31.70" = ? 30 moa = 31.416" per hundred yards Your scope is not dialing in actual MOA (regardless of it's merchandising). Based on earlier scenario it appears to me your scope is dialing slightly higher than MOA at 1.067 IPHY (per 4 clicks). This is very common, and toy makers of every sort usually generalize right past it.. The problem is still that you need to be able to enter actual scope click value into basis for your ballistic solution. Looking over the G7 brochure & manual, it doesn't appear that they gave you an option to do this. Long range shooters need to think in terms of inches per hundred yards(IPHY). This is by far the highest resolution, allowing for no generalizations about it. When we think in MOA & worse, MRAD, injected errors pile up pretty quick. Toy makers love for you to think in loose terms like these, as it separates them from accountability with inaccuracies. So the clicks in you Sightron are not actually 1/4moa, and they're confident you'll never figure that out. Ballistic software makers quote scope brochures, to bypass specific input/ouput adjustments in solution. Now we have combined toys piling up the generalizations into a real mess.. [/QUOTE]
