I have a question because I'm having an old-timers moment, I'M I correct in my thinking. 1 click = 1/8" @ 100, 1/4" @ 200, 3/8" @ 300, 1/2" @ 400 and 5/8" @ 500 ?
So, with a 100y zero, 4 clicks would be 1" ?
Thanks for any and all help. Brian

4 clicks will be 1" at 200yds, but only 1/2" at 100

Yep - your maths is correct.
Essentially you just divide your yardage distance (eg 600) by 100 (=6), put it over your denominator (=6/8) which then gives you inches per 1 click (3/4").
For a 1/4 moa scope, this would be 1 & 1/2" @ 600yd.

If the video helps any better than my example, then forget mine and go with whatever helps you best.
