I am shooting Hornady Whitetail 150 Gr. that is sighted in at 50 yards due to available space. What is my point of impact at 100, 200, 300 yards?

Reloading data for 180 gr GMX for 30-06 my old book does not show GMX 180 gr. Thank You Gary Allino

Good Morning,

I am going on a desert sheep hunt in two weeks. Could you please email to me the trajectory tables and cheat sheet for Hornady 300WinMag 200gr. ELD-X ammo–zeroed in at 100 yards. Thank you — Craig

EDITOR: Hornady won’t do this for you sir. You need to go online, input your load specs and print it out on your own.

This sort of come up table has been around for the longest time. The problem with them is the distance increments are pre-defined and do not match correctly with scope clicks.

It would be better to determine which distance matches each scope click in ¼ MOA increments for example. That’s all the possible zeros. It works better than picking some arbitrary distance increment.

Editor: This very same chart always gets me within one or two quarter-MOA clicks of “Dead On” at 600 yards (depending on temps) using my 6mmBR rifle with 105gr bullets. I’m not quite sure the issue you’re talking about. What’s wrong with “pre-defined” distance increments if you are shooting at known distances? I guess if you have a scope with clicks that are “way off”, you could have an issue. I don’t and most people don’t.
