Does anyone have a link to some good reads on the art of holdovers and holdunders ? Watched a match yesterday and realized I am quite lacking in this skill and would like to educate myself before spraying lead all willy nilly .
 
Re: Holdovers and holdunders

Here's a pdf article from Premier Reticles, on page 6 there is a section about using the reticle for trajectory compensation. Eventhough it is written around the Gen 2 Mildot, the information can be applied to any mil reticle.

Also read this pdf article by Mike Haugen from Remington Military Products Division, just don't pay attention to the reticle diagram on page 2, it's the opposite of what it should be.
