Degree Of Angle Question

I'm not sure this forum is the place I needed to ask this question, but since a friend of mine and me started out talking reloading and ended up talking bullet drop, I posted it here. Please feel free to move it if you need to do so.

My friend is looking for a bullet drop chart. What he is trying to figure out is if a bullet drops say 10 inches at 500 yards, how many clicks should he give his scope to be at 0 at 500 yards. I said that would be the same as dropping 2 inches at 100 allowing for the degree of angle, and if his scope has 1/4 inch clicks, he would need to give it 8 clicks to be on at 500 yards. Am I thinking right on this?

Do any of you know where there is such a chart that he can look at? He has the Sierra software, Point Blank, and I forget what other program, but he can't find this information on any of those, and although I remember seeing it someplace, I don't remember where.
