6mmbr Drop

[chriswillis87]

Ive got a 6mmbr Im using 107gr SMK's 25.5grs 2208 Lapua Cases and cci br primers. the rifle is sighted in at 100m but i want to shoot it out a 300m What would be the drop of the bullet. Ive got a nighteater 8-32x60 scope with 1/8 clicks how much would i have to cum up.

You left out some critical details like muzzle velocity, scope height above the bore and elevation but I'll take a stab at it.
Try somewhere around 5 minutes or 40 clicks.

i have used www.hornady.com/ballistics site to download ballistics tables for calibers .223 thru 6.5-284 with a large variety of bullets and velocities. the info is in 100 yd increments and with a little math you can determine click value=poi yardage for every click of your scope 1/4 or1/8 moa out to 1000 yards if you start with a 100 yd zero. i use this data to make a ballistics chart and tape to the stock of my varmint guns and after a little practice i can range a varmint ,click up the moas from the chart, put the target dot on the target, and send it. reliability has thus far been perfect out to 400 yds...chest shot with my 6-.284, 105 berger vld hollowpointed by myself. bullet expansion was excellent. you must have a muzzle velocity, bc,temp, barometric pressure, and of course,bullet weight. play with the variables and you can see the effect of the bullets flight path and poi. i don't leave home without it.

if i can see you, i can touch you.BANG!
