Elevation Holdovers

Once the distance has been calculated using the EBR-
2B or a laser rangefinder, the EBR-2B can be used for
rapid holdover correction for the bullet drop of the
weapon system being used. To get the most benefit
out of the EBR-2B equipped riflescope, Vortex Optics
highly recommends shooters learn their bullet drop
numbers and windage/lead corrections in mrads rather
than inches or MOAs.

Since the EBR-2B reticle is marked in mrads, it is an
easy job to quickly select the correct drop reference
line once the shooter knows his bullet drops and
windage/lead corrections in mrads. If the shooter
prefers to dial the come ups for bullet drop using the
elevation knob, again knowing bullet drops in mrads
will allow for much faster adjustments as the mrads can
be quickly read on the elevation knob.
