Basic windage correction using drop line on reticle

When using the reticle for elevation correction rather than dialing, the
MOA marks on the center horizontal crosshair can still be used to help
visually reference windage corrections.

Basic moving lead correction

When estimating moving target leads, the MOA marks on the center
horizontal crosshair can be used. Estimating moving leads will require
knowing yardage distance, wind speed, moving target speed and total
bullet flight times including rifle lock time. Bullet flight times can be
roughly calculated based on fps velocities or a ballistic calculator.

Note: Correctly estimating moving leads is very difficult and requires
considerable practice and knowledge beyond the scope of this manual.

9.4 MOA reticle correction for a target moving at 3 mph at 800 yards.
No wind. Total bullet time of flight from trigger pull is 1.5 seconds
during which the target travels 6.6 feet. Elevation already dialed into
