    Ballistics question

    Morning. I feel a little stupid asking this as I should know. Maybe its old age or im just second guessing myself -

    The question being If my rifle is bang on @100 yds . I have a speed of 2960 fps . A ballistics calulator is telling me there is a 3.07" drop at 200 yds which equates to 1.46 MOA am i right in assuming if I come up 6 clicks and reset my 0 on the turret I should be bang on @ 200 Yds ?

    Thanks

    Yes that’s the process but confirm it by shooting at 200.

    Find out if your scope actually tracks true first.
