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.
