WHAT IF YOUR CALIBER IS NOT LISTED?
While we have taken great care to include as many calibers and brand names in our ballistics tables,
new loads are always being developed. In addition, some shooters load their own ammunition with
unique ballistic characteristics. If you cannot find your load in our ballistic tables, you can still use the
bullet drop feature of the laser rangefinder. As above, sight in your rifle at 100 yds. Then shoot the rifle,
without adjusting the riflescope, at 300 yds. Measure the bullet drop from the point of aim. Using this
drop, select the ballistic group from below. If you will be shooting longer distances then you may want
to check the bullet drop at 500 yds. Because there is enormous variation in rifle barrels, chambers, and
hand loads, you should thoroughly test the ballistic setting before actual hunting. You may need to move
up or down one group depending upon your tests.
