I spent 3 hours today figuring out and tuning my nikon scope with BDC. Wow this thing is fantastic. At 400yrds I could consistently hit a beer can and at 600yrds I could hit within 1sq/ft everytime with no guessing. I know this is not all that impressive compared to the benchrest guys but for hunting I am thrilled. BTW the gun is a sako A7 in 300wsm.

No I setup a full sheet of plywood with a white circle on top. I had it zeroed at 200yrds. I put the plywood at 600yrds and fired five shots with the cross hairs on the top circle. I then painted a circle around the group and adjusted the magnifiction untill the bottom
circle was over the group. It is at 16x on mine. Then just shot at a target with that circle. Hope that makes sense.

I think I understand what you did. I was hoping you just filled in the info into the web site's calculator and it was bang on. When I a chance I will get out and see how close there calculations are. Our calibers are similar (7mmRM) so I will post and let you know.
