[QUOTE="Greyfox, post: 856905, member: 10291"] I have used MOA turrets Shooter, Kestral, etc.with my 6.5x284/5x20 Huskemaw, but my preference is for turrets largely due to my primarily game being whitetail and mules deer and usually under 1000 yards. Time to shot is a critical factor for success for me, and the faster and simpler, the better. I use a turret that is calibrated for the average altitude and temperature for the area I hunt. For this work I memorize the click adjustments for variations in temperature and, or altitude. These are typically 1-2 clicks(depending on range) for each 20 degrees, and 1000 ft altitude variations. 10 mph wind adjustents are on my turret and adjusted mentally for speed and angle. I have had no issue making killing shots out to 1000 yards with this approach. Last year i used a G7 Rangefider for the first time. This is the BEST long range shooting investment I have made yet. One yardage turret with an MOA scale on the bottom of the turret covers everything. It works. [/QUOTE]
