[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Scope sight in

Posted: 1/11/2010 4:39:22 AM EDT

I just mounted a BSA 3X9X50 scope on my flat top, Reticle is 3.5" above the bore. For sight in I was thinking 3.5" low at 20 yds would give me around 1.5" high at 100 yds.
Does this sound about right?

JBM has an online ballistics program

Quoted:

With your -3.5 at 20 yards you would be +12.4 at 100 yards.

Plug the numbers into a ballistic program.

Try using some common sense. A ballistic program is only as good as the data entered into it by the user. G.I.G.O.

this, Ur shooting straight so there is no upward movement of the bullet, just out and down. Molon is correct, as the chart shows.
