Correction chart rifle
Make PoliceOne your homepage. A precision shooter must have basic elevation and windage knowledge committed to memory, and there are some simple memory aids to help. All too often, we get so enamored with the scientific minutia, the process becomes more complicated than necessary for the real world. Most snipers have developed a personal range card derived from the detailed log book they keep of every shot fired through their rifle. Such precision is all well and good — if you still maintain the skills necessary to make the shot without your log book, range card, or smartphone app.

Such precision is all well and good — if you still maintain the skills necessary to make the shot without your log book, range card, or smartphone app. Elevation Estimation The trajectory adjustments necessary are very easy to remember. Assuming a yard zero, your corrections for ranges out to yards are: 2 — 3 — 3 — 4 — 4. For intermediate distances, split the difference between the hundred-yard values.
If you work at a high-elevation locale, say more than 3, feet above sea level, your bullets will drop less, requiring less correction. Different wind directions will alter this by fractions you should already know: a half-value wind needs one-half the correction.
The formula goes like this: Multiply the hundreds of yards by the wind speed in mph, then divide that value by the wind factor 12 for our gr load. The result of the formula is the MOA value needed for the wind correction. Another advantage is that you can figure out the Marine formula windage factor for other loads.
For example, my long-range deer hunting rifle, which generates more velocity with a more efficient bullet, has a wind factor of Dick Fairburn has more than 40 years of law enforcement experience in both Illinois and Wyoming, working patrol, investigations and administrative assignments.
