Multiply the amount of error (E) in inches, by the sight radius (SR) in inches, and then divide the product by the distance (D) to the target in inches. (E x SR) / D = C
It's geometry- similar triangles. Convert the range to target into inches. Divide the site radius by the range in inches. That gives you a ratio of similar triangle sizes. Then, you could multiply the 8 inche drop you want by that ratio of similar triangle sizes.
Progressives are the most open minded, tolerant, and inclusive people on the planet, as long as you agree with everything they say, and do exactly as you're told.
A bigger math question is how many rounds do you need to shoot before you get it right?
That's usually how I do it...shoot, shoot, move, shoot, shoot, move.
Do the math and save bullets. Ammo is in tight supply 😀

If I were doing it 4 taps would be required - the first two would be in the wrong direction, then it would take 4 taps to get it past were it was originally and where it needs to be.

Yep.
So six taps actually.
