Thread: Creating a drop chart for a ballistic reticle

Training is required to be successful with any approach


I find I shoot a lot of animals on 4-8x magnification even with a 24x mag top end scope - to allow good observation of the target animal and other animals through the recoil and afterwards. Having the ability to use reticle holds for drop, wind, or corrections with no thought required works really well for me
