March 8 x 80 x 56 dooe

[Arion]

Can anyone share what dope you are using at 300, 600, 800, 900 and 1000 yards
I have a 284 Shehane coming and purchased the March scope to put on it and no experience with SFP and MOA scopes.
Thanks
Tony

First you'll need to zero the scope, say 100 yds.
Then know the speed of your load, bullet B.C. all the particulars of it.
Then plug that info into a Ballistic calculator. This will get you close.

Your diving right into the deep end with that type of equipment and not
knowing much about it. Be safe in your load development. Start low.

I have a similar setup except a straight 284. I also have a 20 degree rail. I sight in at 100 yards and set the zero stop. For 600 yards, I go up 10-11 minutes to get on the paper. For 1000 yards I go up 20-22 minutes from my zero. Hope this works for you.

Thanks guys
Just needed a starting point so I wasn’t wasting ammo. Balistics calc is saying 11 to 12 Moa

I shoot a 284 Shehane with 183 SMK's # 2,990 fps. 10-11 moa up will put you in the black at 600. 23.5 moa up will do the same thing at 1K. These numbers are off a 100 yd. zero.
I hope this helps,

Lloyd

I’m running a 284 Shehane with Berger 184gr F open hybrids @ 2900fps. Zeroed at 100yds.
600 yds is 10.6 moa
1000 yds is 23.8 moa
