I'm shooting out to 600 yds from 300 yds.  I seven clicks up at 300 yds from my 200 yds zero.  

Question what's how many clicks to up from 300 yds to 600yds?  

I have a sightron high power 4.5 power scope with quarter minute per click?

Are you shooting the same ammo at 200, 300 & 600?


200 yards - I have the elevation knob set to 0.
300 yards - 3 minutes up from 200
600 yards - 14.5 minutes up from 200

No one has any way of knowing based on the info that you gave. I suggest you run your data through any of the free ballistic calculators and it will give you exactly what you need.

This..

If we didn't have dope on our rifles, to get close, we could take the distance we were shooting and subtract 200 and that would give an approximate mil adjustment. Ie if shooting 600 we would adjust around 4 mils. This works pretty well out to around 1k give or take..

That being said, it is best to have your actual dope and run the numbers through a ballistic calculator.

I also have a 200 yds zero since that's where the match starts.

A critical point missing is FPS of your rounds,  That's going to affect how many mils or moa you're going to set for distance.

We are lacking the necessary info

Muzzle velocity is listed at 2600 fps.  That's the velocity of the load I'm shooting

You're giving away points if you're not shooting 80-grainers at 600.

Here's a sample ballistic table for Hornady 75s with adjustments in minutes:

Wow.  What tool are you using those velocities match up with the velocity on the electric targets out to 300 yds.  

What about the 75 gn eld match bullets?  Do you think I would have better luck with those?

Sinister.  

Is this info good with a cantalever scope mount with 20 moa down cant?

JBM Ballistic -- it's free.

Your mount slope doesn't affect bullet drop.

Yes, a single-fed Very Low Drag or Extra Low Drag 70-, 75-, or 80-grainer will shoot inside a 75 HPBT.  70s and 75s will work in as slow as a 1-9 twist.

Have you measured this with a chronograph or are you just assuming based on the box…

Do not bother with cheater bullets yet. Looks like 50 clicks.

Thanks,  

All want well.  I dialed in with 14 minutes I was two over down to two after sighters.  

My load was 24.1 gns of rl15 over a 75 grain eld Hornady.  30 thou off the lands.
