Thread: Range finder- what's everyone using and why?

Hi, I thought I'd share my 2cents worth.

The attached pic is a photo of one of the range cards I use for my 7RM. It gives the come ups for ranges out to 800 and corrections for angles. Wind and longer ranges are on the reverse side. I used a combination of ballistic apps and software to calculate the numbers and input them into a spreadsheet.

For example,
Take a line of sight range of 600. On the flat the comeup is 10.7 MOA. If the shot angle is 25 deg (up or down) then an additional correction of -1.5MOA is applied. 1.5MOA at 600 is roughly 9 inches.

This is what I have used, and I know there are better ways out there, but it works for me. The pen shows the rough size of the card.

Cheers,
