    I would give it a try by zeroing the combo at say 30yards with jsb exacts,then get a length of wallpaper say 3 feet long shott a pellet to a point near the top of the sheet.Now center the elevation turret and either shim or adjust the mounts so that the back of the scope is up and the crosshairs fall on a dot exactly 48" below the pellet hole.This will put you on the bull at 100yards but still allow enough adjustments for errors such as incline and windshifting causing the pellet to climb or dip on way to the target.The total drop on your pellet at 100yards is a mere 68 inches or there abouts and a wind from the side of 5mph will deflect the pellet by 14/15 inches.I don't know where some folk get their figures from but if work with Chairgun as a rough guide then you will be close enough to make a start for real,and save a bit of frustration while setting up.Good luck with your endeavours. We shoot at the missed clays on the shotgun range next to the airguh range at the Steve Smiths grounds near Dinnington.And can manage some very good shots at up to 95 yards which is the distance to the bank top from the shooting stalls.It is dangerous to go any further as there are fields behind,but these practices are enjoyed by quite a few of the guys.
