[QUOTE="LRNut, post: 2894150, member: 3230"] Not sure why you didn't click up twice and three times left - are you going to hold or click left every time you shoot? I can tell you what I do: I zero at 500 yards, then use my RF (either SIG 10k, SIG ABS 2400, or G7) to tell me (based on the ballistic info I entered) how much I need to come up at 500 with a 200 yard zero. For example, if it says "7 MOA," I loosen the screws and turn the knob to show 7. I then look to see my offset at 100 for windage to correct for spin at 500; normally 1 click, so I enter that offset in my RF. In your case, try zeroing at 400 and then set your elevation turret to whatever your app says. I long ago gave on two things: iPhone apps and Kestrels. I still use them from time to time, but only to discuss some ballistic concept on a forum. For actual shooting in the field, you are way better off with a RF that has ABS in it. [/QUOTE]
