Then you can adjust your velocity in your ballistic calculator to match your actual inches of drop

Not if I cover it in holes first mwah ah ah

Dial for 400yrds
Hit target
Measure projectile strike on target (in inches) through your scope

Change velocity to match actual projectile strike height

@AndrewH answer the man before I look like a ducks for not knowing any of that.

No hurry Rushy, we can sort it really quickly on the day

Just to make it clear lads there's no hundred meter target
If you can't splash the 1000 yard gong you will shoot no further.
If you can't splash 1800 you shoot no further etc
Im all for guys shooting further than they ever have but i can't have bullets going unseen.

Righty -
338 LM projectile 300 gr Sierra matching with 89.5 gr of Adi 2225
300 Win mag projectile 208 gr with 67.5gr ADI 2213SC

Not sure on the barrel length Rushy will have to measure his own barrels....

In the unlikely event that he hasn't already got a good 100m zero, he can check a zero at a longer known distance (doesn't matter what as long as its known) and a click value come up at a longer distance someone with an app will be able to work out a MV on the day. That just leaves checking the click adjustment value and atmosphere - all good fun Im sure he'll be able to bribe guys to help out with the offer of a few shots through the 338.

I'll bring the .22 for the 300 yard shot anyway

How much ammo will I need to bring to have a good time on both days?

Double this

Thanks 7mmsaum, I only have confirmed drop data to 400 so I guess ammo requirements will depend on how many times I miss.
