Drop Chart for 6x47 Lapua

[halfmoanut]

I just completed my load testing for my rifle, now I want to shoot 300,400,500,600yds could someone share with me their drop in inches so I can get close at these ranges. Iam shooting a 108 Berger @ 3024fps and I currently have a 200yd Zero. I have a scope that has 1/8 min clicks @ 100yds. It would save me some ammo and time. Thank You Kindly!!!!

According to the BC drop chart in the back of Nosler's # 6 reloading manual with a 200 yd zero at 3000 fps the flight path for 300 yd zero would require 3.6 inches at 100 yd. for 400 yd zero would require 6.1 at 100 yd and for 500 yd zero would require 8.9 at 100 yd.. It then shows 18.3 inches low at 600 yds with a 500 yd zero. You would need to do the math to get you on target at 600 yd and adjust your scope accordingly. I hope this helps. Bill

If you don't get the answer from someone with same velocity/bullet, then I'd suggest you go to JBM Click Here to calculate it.

You can use the advertised BC, but I think it will be more accurate if you use a tested BC, or test the BC yourself. I have zeroed at 100 for 600 using the calculation, and had the first, cold bore shot be a 10 on the F-Class target. So it can get you close.
