For someone relatively new to the whole hunting scene, this is what I have found works for me so far...
Admittedly I have actually only had to dial up for 1 deer out of 6 shot so far this year, a 6pt Red stag shot at 325m in the Ruahines back in October.
I originally had a more complicated version but soon discovered that I had a significant variation in recommended dial up using different ballistic apps without using a chronograph first. I now only use those as I have been able to check physical drop by shooting a fair amount of targets at those distances from 200-600yds. I've also found that my accuracy drops jumping from 500 to 600 out of my 18.5" barrel Tikka .308
I am confident of securing game cleanly at 500 so that's my own self imposed limit for the rifle using that particular ammo at the present
