I have a sfp scope with 3-18 magnification. I know that ranging and holdovers using my EBR-4 MOA reticle are only good on the highest magnification. However, is there a way to calculate holdovers at various lower magnification?
First thing any respectable long-range shooter must know is how MOA acts @ different magnification levels. By reading our guide you are one step closer to becoming one.
I used to do it with my old vortex HS-T.
Vortex customer service gave me the corrected reticle measurements.
Of course you have to verify them because just because your scope says it’s on 6x doesn’t mean it actually is exactly 6x
1 moa on 18x = 2 moa on 9x = 6 moa on 3x, or at least it should.
Another way to do it would be print a target with an moa grid on it and actually measure the grid with your reticle at different magnification settings.
