Example: At the 200 yard line, If you put a shot in the 8 ring at 3'O'clock, almost touching the 9 ring; you will need to come left, 6-1/2" , to hit the "X" (dead center). You must move your windage knob (with 1/4' *MOA), left, 13 clicks (3-1/4' *MOA). Remember, 1 click (1/4') is only equivalent to a 1/2" of movement at the 200 yard line. Be bold! *MOA (Minutes of Angle) are degrees by minutes.' 

Mirage is a distortion of the view of the target. Mirage will look like wavy lines of hot air across the target. It may be heavy , medium, or light. It can go from left to right, or right to left. It can stop and boil upwards, or just disappear. There may be no mirage in cold/cool weather, but keep looking for it. To set up your spotting scope for mirage, look through the scope at a clear view of your target, then turn the dial to the left 1/8 of a turn. The mirage will come in more clearly. Set a spot on the top of the target/on the bottom/on the top of the berm/on the number board/at the bottom of the berm. At 300 yards you can find a spot half way and set that for your read. At 600 yards use the 300 yard line, at some point to read. Remember the mirage is not a physical or a ballistic effect on your bullet or your rifle. It is the distortion of what you perceive you see. It acts, seemingly, as the effect of the wind on your bullet. So, use the wind flags to gauge it's effects. If the wind is blowing the flag at 5 mph, then the mirage will act similarly. Not exactly! The wind will normally give the mirage its direction, but not always. If there is no wind and it is hot, the mirage will have a will of its own. Watch for it! Build a routine; before you shoot look through the scope and determine what it is doing (left, right, boiling, or stopped). After you have fired, ask, "Is it the same , or has it changed?" You have to learn what you can do, by applying in practice, routinely, to wait, or to change your windage, or shoot as it hasn't changed and is the same as it was when you shot that previous shot. In Rapid Fire, you will only be able to look through the scope before you start to shoot, or between magazine changes (after you have inserted the second magazine). This may give you the opportunity to make a windage change, and give you a distinct advantage.
