martin_b Posted August 1, 2020 Report Share Posted August 1, 2020 Gents. Can I check my 1000m scope setting on a 6.5CM using the 7.62 Bisley Zero target? Im not worried about exact settings just so dont bust the electronic target. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Re-Pete Posted August 1, 2020 Report Share Posted August 1, 2020 It's near enough with a 308, so it should be fine. Pete Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Triffid Posted August 3, 2020 Report Share Posted August 3, 2020 An interesting exercise . . .using a ballistic app (Shooter in my case) For the NRA 7.62 Zero card and assuming its calibrated for the GGG ammunition (Sierra 155 bullet at 2805 fps muzzle) drop at 1000X is 36.5 MOA. Using the NRA supplied 6.5CM ammunition (S&B 140gn bullet {G1 0.491} at 2657fps muzzle velocity) drop at 100X is 38.0 MOA. So the CM ammo is predicted to be 15" low if you use the 7.62 1000X Zero target for setting your scope. As Pete says, near enough.

Re-Pete Posted August 3, 2020 Report Share Posted August 3, 2020 We've found these 7.62 zero cards capable of getting everything from 308 down to 223 "on the paper". Pete Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rem Imperri Posted August 3, 2020 Report Share Posted August 3, 2020 There's a specific card for 223. No need to mess with the .308 card there. But as stated above for 6.5 it'll get you close enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
