Doesn't matter the system of measure, it's a ratio. At 500 yards out, its half a yard, at 100 yards out its 1/10 yard, ect. 800 Yard Steel Range Precision Rifle Instruction Memberships and Classes Available

Apparently it’s been there a while and I just accidentally clicked on it. I would have checked it out long ago out of curiosity had I known.
