[QUOTE="Broz, post: 628807, member: 7503"] The ballistic turrets are nice, but just remember it is only spot on at the elevation and temp it was designed for. But out to 500 to 700 yards you may be ok depending on the caliber and the field conditions. If you change altitude or temperature you will be off and the farther the shot distance, the farther the miss wil be. So, to answer your question, it depends on how far you wish to shoot. Here is what I would do. For under 600 yards do a BDC turret. For 600 plus I would go with a .25 MOA turret and a PDA or phone app and enter actual field conditions. That said I use "shooter" on my phone for every shot while hunting. Also remember, you will need to confirm either of these methods with actual field shooting to make sure it is on at several distances before you try to take game. Nothing is set in stone untill tested and documented. Jeff [/QUOTE]
