Smallbore at the Championship will be in meters. 100 yard ram vs 100 meter ram is a big difference for a smallbore sight setting.

Would anyone care to share their experience? Rams and Turkeys - 75/100 yd v m. Delta MOA.

I can give you for iron sights. This will depend on what ammo and Sights you are using. for me with a Bomar on a 10" production gun:

For chicken and pig, I normally can get away with 1 extra click.

For turkey, I add in 2 clicks but it shoots a Tad High.

For Ram, I add in somewhere around 3-5 clicks.

Remember, 100 Meters is just a little over 109 yards....

I almost never shoot scoped, so I am no use for that.

Great info. I’ll see how this aligns with my open sight FA. Much appreciated.

Lucky for you your home range has both 100y and 100m backstops. Use a rangefinder to find 75m when shooting at an angle into the 75y berm. Since iron sight adjustments are based on a combination of sight radius, bullet velocity, and click adjustments of the rear sight, it is best to simply spend a several range trips to establish and confirm actual sight settings with your (gun, ammo, click adjustments). Let me know if I can help. Paper targets help.
