Different ammunition will require slightly different numbers but mine is 21 (Pigs) to 41 (Rams) on the vernier.  Actual difference is about .200" on the staff.  Mind you this is just my gun, sight, ammo setup.
Maybe this will help.    Roll Eyes

  About 1 & 1/2 turns on a scope.

Try Shooters Calculator. I already ran it for 109yd/100M zero, so, if calc and graph come through, there is answer for sea level at 218yds/200M. Calculator allows correction for elevation above sea level, %humidity, air temp. IF graph and chart do not appear, is easy to select/enter needed data.

Probably about 18 to 24 depending on the ammo.

Ledball,

It will vary with ammo, conditions, and your rifle.  On one of mine, I need to add 15 minutes while on another 17.  This is with different ammo, selected for optimized rifle accuracy.  Others usually fall in between, but those are good starting points, which are then fine tuned for the conditions at that time.  And every now and then, those conditions will actually remain constant through a shoot.

Just finished the mental math, it's exactly what Schuetzendave said.  Little slow this morning.

I guess that method works well for you John since you shot a 245 yesterday.  Congratulations

Well every dog has his day! It's been a long time since I've shot that well, and by far the best 200yd .22 work I've ever done. Steven Durren is likely responsible for a lot of it, every time I shoot that Ballard it impresses.

The drop is about 6 feet with target ammo.

I have several and have to agree 1/8" clicks I run about 120 clicks. Unertl's with standard spacing half that, all 100yard zero to go to 200 yd. doesn't make a lot of difference what 22 ammo as long as standard velocity and that same ammo at 100 yd as 200 yd.

My B&L takes 17 1/2 minutes from 100 to 200, or 1 3/4 revolutions.
