And....don't forget the mechanical side of things. Just because the drop chart says 76 clicks and your scope says 1/4" per click at 100yds don't make it so. You need to verify by shooting that number of clicks to find out if it's OK for your setup and scope. 76 clicks according to the chart and 76 clicks in the scope may not be the same distance...It may be 77 or even 78 ....Computer charts are OK but you need to understand that they are calculated using exact numbers. If any of those numbers don't correspond to the real world amplication, your chart may not be the same as what your scope dial says it is. .....Now that is confusing........... Point is... just verify everything by actual shooting and dialing your scope prior to shooting at game animals.
