There are lots of ways to approach this. I'll tell you how i do my distance corrections. I work with holdover on a mildot reticle. I use the Optisan 10x32 CP scope and ballistic free software by Hawke. You choose your favorite pellet and enter all the variables into the software. It will give you a pretty good approximation of the pellet trajectory. I tune the pellet trajectory in the software with the scope height value for the shorter distances and with the BC value for the longer distances. When you have got your correct values in the software you can print a reticle with your corrections for different range increments. I stick the print to the scope. Now, if you use a laser range finder in the field to measure the distance, you read the mildot correction from the print and correct for distance without touching the turrets. Once you have set everything up, it's quick and easy.
