The Leupold Ballistic Aiming
System™ – Boone and Crockett™
Big Game Reticle
The goal of every hunter is a successful hunt with a clean harvest. It was with
this in mind that Leupold
®
created the Leupold Ballistic Aiming System™.
Because we so strongly agree with the Boone and Crockett Club’s
®
legacy of
wildlife conservation and ethical fair chase hunting, we have designated one
of the system’s reticles as the Boone and Crockett
™
Big Game reticle, while
the other is designated as the Varmint Hunter’s reticle.
Together, the Boone and Crockett
™
Big Game reticle and the Varmint Hunter’s
reticle give the hunter two very useful tools intended to bring about successful
hunts with clean and efficient harvests. Through the use of these straightforward
and easy-to-follow instructions, it is sincerely hoped that all hunters will find
their skills improved and their hunts more successful.

The Leupold Ballistic Aiming System provides a series of aiming points to
improve your ability to shoot accurately at longer ranges. The first aiming
point (the intersection of the Duplex
®
reticle) is designed to be used at 200
yards with most common cartridges or at 300 yards in several flatter shooting
cartridges designed for longer range use.
The Leupold Ballistic Aiming System provides you with two different power
selector positions, indicated by large and small triangles located within the
magnification level indicators. These are provided to allow you to select the
hold points best suited to the cartridge you are using. In some cases, the smaller
triangle setting can be used to accommodate your slower, heavier bullet load,
while the larger triangle can be used to accommodate a faster, lighter bullet
load in the same rifle. The reticle assumes bullets of similar spitzer shape will
be used throughout.

Ballistic Aiming System

As an example, a 30-06 with a 180 gr spitzer bullet and 2700 fps muzzle velocity
would require the use of the smaller triangle mark. A 30-06 with a 150 gr
spitzer bullet at 3000 fps muzzle velocity would use the larger triangle mark.
We have designated three sets of cartridges to be used in conjunction with
the large and small triangles and sight-in distances of either 200 or 300 yards,
described as Group A, Group B, and Group C:
• Group A cartridges will use the large triangle and a 200 yard zero
• Group B cartridges will use the small triangle and a 200 yard zero
• Group C cartridges will use the large triangle and a 300 yard zero
Be sure to verify the aiming points by practicing at the actual distances at
which the points are intended to work. Ballistic performance of your rifle
and cartridge can vary somewhat from ammunition manufacturer data
due to rifle barrel length, actual ammunition performance and various
atmospheric conditions.

SIGHTING-IN
The Boone and Crocket
™
Big Game reticle is sighted-in by zeroing the rifle at
the intersection of the Duplex® reticle at either 200 yards (Group A and B), or
300 yards (Group C). For Group C cartridges sighted-in at 300 yards, the lower
aiming marks will be correct at 400, 500, 550, and 600 yards. Be sure to verify
the aiming points by practicing at the actual distances at which the points are
intended to work. Ballistic performance of your rifle and cartridge can vary
somewhat from ammunition manufacturer data due to rifle barrel length,
actual ammunition performance and various atmospheric conditions. See the
Owner’s Manual for detailed sighting-in instructions.
