223 ?
shooting a 55 grain 223 at 50 yards. i have it dead on with a 4 shot group the size of a nickel.
how much should i increase the elevation to be 1" high at 100 yards

About 1inch. 🙃

It depends on the height of your scope above the bore. It may already be at least an inch high at a hundred with a relatively low mounted scope. Higher mts. may have you hitting a bit higher than that.

Well......lots to consider here! My SWAG(scientific wild @ guess) would be 3 clicks up. At 50 yards, that 223 is still gaining in upwards arch.

Take a shot at 100 the way it is and adjust .

No matter what he math says, the only true way is shoot it.
Hold dead on at 100, fire a few rounds and adjust accordingly. Same for any range.

Just guessing a 50 yard zero will put you about 3-4" high @ 100 with medium ring mounted scope and higher than that if using standard AR iron sights.
