Mule Deer Ranging & Holdover (MRAD)
#3
Ballistics were figured for factory Hornady SST @ 2500 fps - 5000' elevation. Was surprised to notice that out to 300 yards with the belly of the deer at 2 mils the holdover worked itself out nicely, made up another set of images for a friends rifle using a Vortex reticle with hash marks every 2 MOA using the same load data. These holds work well for my 308 shooting 178gr ELD-X @ 2640 as well. With a flatter shooting cartridge the same hold would likely work to even greater distances.
