[QUOTE="marksman1941, post: 2911675, member: 68542"] All depends on the time. I shot my bear this year at 350 as he was ambling through the brush. I ranged him at 300, then he stepped into the brush. I ranged where I thought he’d come out, checked my dope card taped on my stock, and got 12” or 3.4 moa. I got in the scope where the bear was expected to appear, and before I had time to dial he popped out. I had a FFP 3-15 so holdover was just as fast and easy and it worked out great. If he was grazing across the hill and not moving at all and I had all the time in the world, I would have dialed. But sometimes it isn’t needed or doesn’t make sense given time constraints. Assuming your scope is quality, both should be equally accurate [/QUOTE]
