Trajectory ?

I'm new to benchrest shooting and attended my first informal groundhog match last month. I am shooting a 6.5x284 with a nightforce 12x42x56 br scope, I need to know how many clicks I need at 300yds and 500yds with a 100yd zero. Sierra 142 at 2950 fps at the muzzle drops 10.8 inches at 300yds and drops 43.9 inches at 500yds How many clicks with 1/8 min at 100 scope? I don't have any place to shoot longer than 200yds to make adjustments
thanks
 
If you have a look on the home page you will find a little heading Ballistics go there and there should be a calculator that you can put in all the information you have that will tell you the rest if not i can email you a program that does it.
All you need is muzzle velocity projectile weight if it is a commercial Projectile it will be in the list with BC height of scope above center of bore and it will give you path and elevation etc and windage if you put in wind strength and direction relevant to your shooting line.
