Default ? 270wsm reloading

Hello,
I am reloading for my 270wsm rifle. I have it sighted in at 100yds, where can I expect it to hit at 200 ? 300? or maybe even longer distances ?
here is what I am shooting 140 Accubond bullets pushed by 56.5gr IMR 4350. I don't have a book to calculate this myself. Thanks for the help..
Steve

There are a couple things we need to know before we can give you a estimate. Scope height and velocity will give give us a place to start

I am not going to say these numbers are going to be exact, but it will get you real close without knowing all conditions. Zeroed at 100 you will be 3" low at 200 and 11.1" low at 300.

For that load though I tend to agree with ridge runner. If you have the ability to zero for 200 yards that is what I would do. with 200 zero you would be 1.6" high at 100 and 6.5" low at 300.

Put it on paper at the range. That is the only way that you are going to have an exact poi. That being said, what Ridge Runner told you is going to be close.

You will be suprized at how many calibers can be zeroed at 30 yards and be 3 inches high at 170 yards zero again at 300 yards.
