I am shooting a M1A with a U.S. OPTICS SN-3 1.8-10 POWER SCOPE.
It is sighted in at 100 yards, dead-on. Iam shooting M118 Lake city Match Ammo 173 grain ammo. I went to a 300 yard range last weekend for the first time, never shot past 100 yards. What is my hold over at 300 yards with this ammo? My reticle is a MOA Scale type 1. I am new to long range shooting and just starting shoot at longer ranges. The HASH MARKS on my scope are 2 MOA Spacing, I just do not want to start turning my knobs and lose my 100 yard zero as I most of the time shoot only 100 yards. But I am reading about hold over on these scopes and want to learn, My rifle has a Med./Match Barrel. I only shoot this Type of Ammo out of this rifle. So how many hash marks do I hold over at 300 yards? I am a Rookie at this so please any info will help, I want to learn more about longer range shooting. Thanks
