Elevation Holdovers
Once the distance has been calculated using the EBR-1 MOA
reticle or a laser rangefinder, the EBR-1 can be used for rapid
holdover correction for bullet drop of the cartridge being used.
To get the most benefit out of the EBR-1 equipped riflescope,
Vortex Optics highly recommends shooters learn their bullet drop
numbers in MOAs rather than inches.
Since the EBR-1 reticle is scaled in 2 MOA increments, it is an
easy job to quickly select the correct drop reference line once
the shooter knows the bullet drops in MOAs. If the shooter
prefers to dial come ups for bullet drop using the elevation knob,
knowing bullet drops in MOAs rather than inches will allow for
much faster adjustments as the MOAs can be quickly read on the
elevation knob.
17.5 MOA reticle holdover at 625 yards. No wind.
