[QUOTE="rflemens, post: 713425, member: 56671"] Thanks a bunch, that really helps. I'm hunting on a pipeline corner I can see about 650 yds. in 2 directions. Currently I'm shooting a 25 yr old Ruger M77 in .280 with a 25 year old redfield 3x9, handloaded with 58 grains of imr 4831 behind 140 grain accubond. I have a cheat sheet with yardages to reference points along the pipeline and another cheat sheet with hold overs and unders (zeroed at 300 so I'm 4.57 high at 170).My longest kill has been 379 yds. I'm thinking I can upgrade the scope this year, use the mildot hash marks to correspond to the yardages, maybe learn to properly use the mildots and upgrade the gun by next season. Thanks again for the responce and taking the time to help a 50 year old beginner out. [/QUOTE]
