Darrell:

Great write up and very interesting read.

It's always good to know how to survive and keep hunting/shooting even if all of our electronic gadgets go dead.

I suspect many of us started off with the reticule as our range finder. That is the way my snipers did it in RVN. It is very effective if you practice with it.

My first range finding scope was the Redfield Accutrac and it was a marvelous device but the Accutrac was only good for about 500 yards or so and it was on a 25-06. Once I outgrew that, I went to the straight Accurange and if you had plenty of time it would do a very good job.

Very good article and I enjoyed it immensely.
