Hi guys, I have a few questions on the JBM calculator, and Im wondering if you could double check my numbers and help me figure out the range cards. I feel the simplified trajectory card is accurate except for the elevation differences; my question is on the atmospheric differences when he sighted it in versus where my dad will be hunting. (And figuring out the range cards)
In the past, he would just aim high, now that we figured out his scope clicks he is excited to see a big buck out 500+ yards, so bullet drop, elevation/windage clicks are important.
Here is some info.
Chamber; 300 win mag (.308)
Reloaded (consistent) IMR 4831 @ 74gr
Bullet; Nosler 165 Ballistic tip, bc .410, sd .248
Optics; Swarovski Habicht 3-12x50 .36in/100yards
Sighted in at 300ft elevation @ 70 degrees F
Hunting at 7600 ft elevation (high 59 degrees, low 25 degrees)
Sighting in at 100yrds three inches high, put him ¾” high at 300yrds
On the range cards, (Trajectory Card, Ucard, and Ucard Constant Drop) Im having trouble, getting results, and interpreting them. (Drop units and windage units, not sure what I need there?)
I will add the simplified trajectory chart that I came up with.

On the data output, what does this mean: Elevation: 1.840 mil (and why is the windage at 0.00mil?)
Thanks
