[QUOTE="gusd, post: 1594405, member: 90071"] So when you use your sub tensions for adjustments are you spotting your shot and adjusting from there? If I understand correctly any scope with a christmas tree style reticle would work as long as you don't adjust the magnification of the scope correct? Or are you figuring what the value of the sub tension is? If I understand this correctly [said target is 875 yards so an each MOA hash on your reticle is valued at 8 3/4" ] So at 875 if you wanted to hit 20" in any one direction you would have to hold 2.25MOA? I can understand this working great in a target shooting situation when you know your target for example is 24" wide, but don't see a great advantage in a hunting situation.Because I am not great at knowing what 12" 14" 16" 18" is at 874 yards. I am a huge believer in."Hunt with what you practice with." I know either style works great if you practice either way. [/QUOTE]
