One of the most important concepts that i have learned when it comes to LR shooting is the mil-dot mil-ranging formula, as this one formula defines rangefinding and downrange zeroing with any reticle or turret system. Filling in the unknowns in the equation from your figures above we get--
96" x 100 yds / 0.26" / X clicks = 700 yds.
X= 53-0.25 MOA clicks.
Your turret should be marked in whole number MOA increments. Here's how it works with the whole # MOA system--
96x100/1.0472/X=700
X=13.1 MOA
Dial the turret up to the 13 mark and your done.
Any other formula will be a simplification or rearrangement of this 1 basic formula.
