I am reading a 7mm Remington Magnum ballistics chart and don't understand something. Here is an example:
Yards....Drop In Inches(100YD)Zero....Drop in Inches(200YD)Zero
100:....................0..........................................1.8
200:.................-3.6..........................................0
300:................-12.9......................................-7.6
I assume this means you sight it in at 100 yards and the drop is 0" then at 200 yards the drop will be 1.8" (so aim 1.8" high). The next line says you sight in at 200 yards and that drop is 0" and at 100 yards the bullet will be 3.6" high (so at 100 yards aim 3.6" low). Now how do I interpret the 3rd line? Does this mean I sight in at 300 yards and for 100 yards aim 12.9" low and at 200 yards aim 7.6" low?
