165 grain nosler ballistic tip on my .308 sniper rifle. I feel comfortable to about 500 yards.

+1.4 at 100 -6.4 at 300...

Ok -
308 165 Grain +2.1 at 100 and - 8.8 at 300 at 500 you better aim high by about 51"
45-70 - leverlution +3.0 at 100, zero at 200 and -27.8 at 300..
Just an FYI All of these stats are Zeroed at 200 yards..

I don't have those numbers in front of me.. But bullets will start the rise at the muzzel and continue to rise out to about 50 - 75 yards before they start down.. I can't get to any ballistic sites here from work.. It's like YouTube..

Are you really getting that much better performance out of hand loads.
Because every factory ammo I see is no where near that flat..
The flattest I see for 300 Win Mag is if your +3 at 100 you would be -4 at 300 and - 15 at 400 and the 300 WSM is very similar.. If your really getting that much flatter shooting bullets from Handloads that is amazing..

I shot last week, and using my nightforce 22.5 x 56 scope, I am dead on at 100 yds. and at 300 yds, i am adjusting 12 clicks up. each click is .25 moa.

Yeah....I plan on doing just that this year. It's a neat little gun, I really like it a lot. I'll probably use it until I kill one, then I MIGHT get the ol .308 back out. 1st things 1st though...gotta let my daughter put one on the ground with it before I do.
