Well....For me it's a Rem 700 LTR. I read a lot, asked some questions and I received some tips.

Hand loads, a ballistics calculator, a chrony and lots of practice was the advice. Due to all that advice I received (and some work on my part), I finally put 5 rounds in a quarter sized area at 412 yds on a windy day and my scope dope was perfect during deer season.

RDret1 makes a good point on the Ultimate Sniper Book for reference, it's how I figured out the mil-dot. Secondly if you search, there are numerous threads on PS.com regarding scopes, loads and and stuff on this forum, at your finger tips from some folks that know how to make it all function as one.
