My 300 Win Mag shooting 215's at 3000 fps drop data: 1000 yds=23.1 MOA or 241.5"
950 yds+ 21.2 MOA or 211.3"
That's a difference of 30.2". I don't see how you can hold reticle that accurate unless it is one of those very busy ones that I just can't use. To confusing for me. Is there something I am missing here? This will apply to other yardages as well but obviously gets more extreme the farther out you go.

If the elk is 950 yards away, I get at least 450 yards closer, or I don't shoot.
