Try plotting the factory ammo you shoot in your rifle using many of the online trajectory calculators.
I use this one on the Hornady page, it is simple - yet very accurate.

If your input data is good, the software will give you the option to create a printable dope sheet you can take out to the field with you.
Then you can test your actual scope clicks against the predicted values. The actual values to be on target will change from day to day, and sometimes by the hour.
This is a great learning exercise, and you may find out your scope might not do exactly what it should.
