    300 WSM Turret Label

    Merry Xmas and all that.

    Mate and I had we play on a drawing program and came up with a pretty cool turret label for my WSM.

    Only went for one revolution but still gets me out to 620 metres and any further it'd only be on gongs, so plenty of time to muck around with ballistics program then. Got sick of worrying about laminated sheets and cell phone apps. while out in the bush.

    As long as you've got TBR on your range finder you're good to go.

    Nice. But why run a 100yd zero?
    270 is a harmonic divisor number[1]
    270 is the fourth number that is divisible by its average integer divisor[2]
    270 is a practical number, by the second definition
    The sum of the coprime counts for the first 29 integers is 270
    270 is a sparsely totient number, the largest integer with 72 as its totient
    Given 6 elements, there are 270 square permutations[3]
    10! has 270 divisors
    270 is the smallest positive integer that has divisors ending by digits 1, 2, …, 9.

    Don't know anything else. Just how I've always done things. Happy to hear more about it.
    Do you mean to get more elevation out of the turret?

    Great idea, All of my rifles have been 100m zero because of dail turrets, except 300BLK 60m zero.

    What type paper you using waterproof?
    How do you stick it to the turrets?
    What scope you running to get 15 MOA per turn?

    @tikka going to get the sign writer we use at work to print onto suitable sticker material. I’m using VX3i LRP 5.5-20 Leupold
