The sights on the M16/M4 series of rifles are metric- ;)
Using a 55g FMJ @ 3080fps and a 30m BZO- This BZO will allow more room for error on the part of the shooter (?).

I really like both of your graphics.  It explains drop in a way that will be easy for novice/inexperienced shooters to understand.  When you combine these types of graphics with the recent posts and graphics that I have seen on Appleseed Facebook about canting your rifle while shooting I imagine that quite a few new shooters will pay more attention to their form.
