Okay, back ground info; I have 8 milliradians up, and 8 down, from my crosshairs. Right now I have it set to where I move vertical up(point the tip of my gun down) my crosshairs to +5.5mil and I will be sighted in for 100yard shooting.
If I move up to only 5mil, I'll be sighted in for 200yard shooting. If I move up to 4mil, I'm good at 300yards, and if I just barely move up to 0.5mil, I'm good for 600yard shooting.
So this puts my crosshairs right around a little more than 600yards. What range can I expect my bottom 8mil subtends (pointing the barrel of the gun up) to be good for? I realize I'm leaving a lot out, so let me help by saying the ammo: malaysian surplus 146gr bt 7.62x51 from '82. I don't have velocity numbers yet.
Any help understanding this would be appreciated. This is difficult to predict, as not a single calculator seems to provide similar results.
If any of that was hard to understand, basically my rifle/scope are sighted in at 600yards and I have to point my rifle down to shoot at 100, 200, 300,400, or 500 yards. I wanna know how long in theory the bottom half of my scope subtends are good out to.
Thanks .
