    Just follow the instructions and it will calculate and display all you need.

    It is designed for the SR6, SR12 and MAP reticules but I find it is is usefull for calculating aimpoints for just about anything.
    this will depend on your velosity(foot lbs) over here were the limit is 12ftlb, would i be wright saying you have no such restrition on airguns over in the states

    my TX200HC's are both set up at sub 12fpe with UK springs in them...on the other side of the spectrum I do have lots of FAC air rifles pushing up to 200fpe(Dragonslayer .50)

    Regards,

    Nick Jenkinson advocates zeroing a 11.5fpe +/- .177 airgun at 40yds (SR6).

    I have done this, continue to do so, and it works. It gives quite a nice margin for error at typical airgun hunting ranges.
