but more ammo  shoot 3-5 shot groups and walk them into the bull.  no Internet answer is going to help you real world  exp. all that counts.

long story short i left the fuller box of ammo at home when i went to zero today. wasted half of what i had by being a retard and adjusting the wrong damn way. got it within 1.5 - 2" right and perfect vertical. i have a match tomorrow and really wanted to use my new rifle. i figure if i can get it a bit closer and fine tune it during the match i should be ok. but for the life of me i cant figure out how many clicks to get it a bit closer without foing way too far.

100 divided by 25 equals 4.
3/4 divided by 4 equals 3/16.
2 divided by 3/16 equals ten, with 1/8 remaining.
So eleven clicks will get you close.

100/25=4
4x2=8
8/.75=10.666666

so 10 to 11 clicks

Secure the rifle in the "mount" or "sandbags" you used to intially shoot the rifle, and aim at the same point you did intially. Have somebody else turn the turret srews to put the crosshairs on the hole you shot, without you moving the rifle, while you guide them. DO NOT let the rifle move.

It really ain't that difficult.


As for your question, it depends on how far each click of your turret moves the POA/POI.

1.5" is 6" at 100 yards..
2" is 8" at 100 yards.

Each click is 3/4" at 100 yards, correct?   Then divide 6" by 0.75" (per click) and get.....8 clicks
8" by 0.75" is...10.67 clicks (between 10 and 11 as mentioned above).
