Do any of you go by the charts and sight in your rifle at 50yds first ?
I have been playing with my Savage Mod 10 FP-SR, using 150gr SPBT's and set it up about .5 high at that range. The velocity is ~2850 and according to the charts it is on at about 175yds, and from my limited shooting at gongs that seems about right. Was knocking the fudge out of the 200 and 250 yard steel, had to aim about 2 feet high on the 400 yard gong ;- )

After clocking them I use one of the many drop calculators, this one for example> http://www.handloads.com/calc/
They may not be 100% to the .00001" of an inch but will at least get you close.

When I was in boot camp (USMC) we sighted in on the 200 inch range. Of course we had the M-14 with iron sights. That put us at zero at 200 meters. It worked.
I use that site, they seem very good !Quote:
