The TA01 is calibrated for 55gr ammo out of a 20-inch barrel.

I wouldn't sweat the small stuff, though. Out to around 33yds, the difference in trajectories between 55 and 62gr ammo isn't even really noticeable. Out at 500yds, the difference is only around 6 inches or so.

The TA01 is for 55gr. out of a carry handle on a 20" barrel. Out to 300, you won't see much change by using different ammo or barrel lengths; but if you start stacking changes (flattop mount 16" shooting 62gr for example), you'll see a bigger change.
