[QUOTE="BIG MO, post: 311153, member: 18994"] Montana man, Wow! I guess the Best of the West guys don't have a clue about what works best for long range hunting. They are just a bunch of jokers who have their own TV show and sell $5000 rifles and $1200 scopes like hot cakes. Jeeze, I've been fooled again. Ha Ha, I'm just busting your balls. :) I appreciate your strong opinion and you are a huge asset to this web site. You are obviously well schooled in long range shooting and prefer a different system. Those are all valid issues that in most cases, can be compensated for by making extra up or down adjustments from the base yardage setting on the custom turrent. You still have to know how to dope the conditions and adjust accordingly. And if you know you will be hunting at major differences in elevation it is not a bad idea to have two turrents say for example one for 2000ft and one for 7000ft, as the BOTW folks recommend. To each his own, but for all out down and dirty, get a bullet in the kill zone quick and confidently, for me, the custom turrent and lazer range finder is the simplest most effective system. In closing, everyone has to use the system they like best, each has its pros and cons. [/QUOTE]
