CONCLUSION
• Choose the appropriate ballistics group
• Sight-in at the distance required by that group (this may be done at any
magnification setting)
• Adjust the magnification to the highest setting before using any of the long
range hold points
For use with the Boone & Crockett
™
Big Game, Varmint Hunter’s, Long Range Duplex,
and Long Range Varmint reticles. If you are using a Long Range Duplex or Long
Range Varmint reticle with a cartridge from the Group B cartridge chart, or if you
have a cartridge that does not appear in one of the accompanying cartridge charts,
the following method will provide you with a quick and easy way to sight-in. VX-7
users without large or small triangle reference marks should also use this method.
1.
Initially, sight-in at 200 yards. Your point of impact needs to match your point
of aim exactly at the 200 yard intersection of the reticle.
2.
Using a larger target, place the target at a 500 yard distance and shoot a
group while aiming with the 200 yard intersection; your bullets will strike
significantly (in some instances 60 inches or more) below the center.
