[QUOTE="teesquare, post: 1177815, member: 56740"] I think we are getting a little confused about the difference using mil marked FFP reticles for "Long Range Hunting"...and the current popularity o "'Extreme Long Range Tactical" shooting. Have been viewing the video recommended by engineer40 - and I am going to watch all of them in that series. Long, but really really good tools for understanding the physics for those shots. I am looking to shoot steel out to 1000 yards as a secondary use of this scope/gun combo. But my primary interest is in LRH...and - I am seeing a trend among scope manufacturers - and some Long Range Hunters - toward the use of a more tactical style reticle - and borrowing some of the other tech. from tactical for LRH. That seems reasonable to me. And - it will require a lot more reading, and testing...but everything I see thus leads me to believe that I should be able to translate the mil marks into +, - elevation/windage for hunting in a known elevation, and general weather range.
