Does anybody have access to ballistic software? I want to figure out the MPBR for the bullet i am shooting so i can sight it in. Let me know a good website or i can give you all the info on the bullet. Thanks.

I've always had good luck with this one:

You will need to know the ballistic coefficient of the bullet and the muzzle velocity.

Just adjust the "Zero Range" until you get the trajectory that you want. The Maximum Point Blank Range would then be where the bullet drops 2 inches below the line of sight.
