As an example, a 30-06 with a 180 gr spitzer bullet and 2700 fps muzzle velocity

would require the use of the smaller triangle mark. A 30-06 with a 150 gr

spitzer bullet at 3000 fps muzzle velocity would use the larger triangle mark.

We have designated three sets of cartridges to be used in conjunction with

the large and small triangles and sight-in distances of either 200 or 300 yards,

described as Group A, Group B, and Group C:

• Group A cartridges will use the large triangle and a 200 yard zero

• Group B cartridges will use the small triangle and a 200 yard zero

• Group C cartridges will use the large triangle and a 300 yard zero

Be sure to verify the aiming points by practicing at the actual distances at

which the points are intended to work. Ballistics performance of your rifle

and cartridge can vary somewhat from ammunition manufacturer data

due to rifle barrel length, actual ammunition performance, and various

atmospheric conditions.
