Can anyone correct/ shed light and/ or confirmation on the following?
I am specifically thinking about the (E)XPS-2 versions. Does anyone know the actual MOA drop/ distance of that second dot.
Ive read that the 300 blk version and the "regular" version are the same reticle, and that the regular one is spec-ed for 62 gr @2900, and the lower dot is 500 yard.
Plugging these into ballistic, using 208 A max 300 blk and 50 yard zero, I get just over 13 MOA drop for 150 yards. For the 5.56 zeroed at 50/200, that 500 yard distance is a just over 12 MOA drop. So those line up pretty well.
However, a Barnes 110 gr super 300 blk, zeroed at 100 shows a 6.9 MOA drop for 300...
This is all theoretical for me at this point. Ive not shot these various loads through these optics, yet.
Eyeing the reticle, the center dot splits the 68 MOA circle in half. And the dropped dot seems it sit slightly less than halfway below the center dot. So that 12-13 MOA drop *seems* reasonable...
Thank you for entertaining my Friday morning math problem...
