Thanks Guys

Here's my answer to both questions, based on my experience with these scopes..

Altitude - Look up the altitude on Google for where your hunting will occur most often for this rifle, and use that.

Feet per second - If you are using factory ammo take the FPS number right off the box, and use that.

If using hand loads you will have to shoot it through a chrono.
