Hey guys I just sat down and came up with this windage chart that yall might find helpful. I might be a little off but it surely will save on bullets and you don't have to buy anything.
This chart is for 1/8" MOA scopes. To figure 1/4" MOA just divide the number by 2. To figure 1/2" MOA divide the number of clicks by 4. If you need help to figure it out Email me at: alvarez946@yahoo.com
STEP1: if you have a bore sight align it at the center of the target and dial in an approximate zero with your scope turrets. If not continue to step 2.
STEP2: Find a place that you can shoot the same exact place from everytime. You can make a rest from a sand bag or sack of corn.
STEP3: fire a 3 shot group at your target.
STEP4: measure from the center of the group to the center of the target.
STEP5: Refer to the chart below to get your zero adjustment.

I voted yes but really I haven't adjusted my scope in 10 years. I shoot my gun twice each year before season, each year it's dead on.
My son's rifle was way off this year and I don't know how. It's driving tacks now.

You can either make it an announcement or copy it and sticky it there I guess.

That is a great chart. But it is off really bad. The math ain't working. If you have a inch. There are 8 clicks in a inch. Using a 1/8" MOA. If you have a 1/4" MOA there would be 4 clicks to get to a inch of movement. 1/2" MOA you would have to go 2 clicks to get a inch of movement. Just my 2 cents worth. LOL
