[QUOTE="dwm, post: 17444, member: 1136"] The way I see it in today's high tech game, you have three choices: 1. Laser range finder plus handheld computer with actual drop charts and ballistic program installed. Does the military issue hand helds to the present day long range marksmen? 2. Laser range finder with drop charts 3. MIL-DOT scope plus MIL-DOT Master There is still the outstanding issue of estimating the angle though. At long range and/or steep angles, the accuracy of estimating the angle and the amount of angle involved make a big difference in where the bullet hits. I think all techniques will work as long as the marksman understands his chosen approach and trains accordingly. [ 11-28-2003: Message edited by: dwm ] [/QUOTE]
