[QUOTE="Surveyor1653, post: 2870172, member: 5197"] Just to add emphasis that this is critical for [I][U]everyone[/U][/I], regardless of what you're shooting. If you zero your rifle at some baseline zero distance (25m, 50m, 100m, etc) and rely on a chart out of an FM or a software-generated table for elevation and wind corrections, you're working with a [I][U]theory[/U][/I], not a zero. You have to get out and put metal on a target to confirm that you're going to hit what that gee whiz program tells you you're going to hit, where it's telling you you're going to hit it. Don't be a sucker and rely wholesale on a BDC reticle that (SPOILER ALERT) wasn't created using your exact rifle and load combination. [/QUOTE]
