[QUOTE="Climbhard, post: 664594, member: 34809"] Question for all you hunters. how do you guys handle longer range shots. I have a 7mm Rem Mag zero'ed at 250 which gives me maximum point blank range of 285 - 290. Meaning my bullet is never more than 3" above or below line of sight. That's great for my VX-II fine duples scope but what if I see my big bull at say 475 and he's just standing there broadside. At 475 I'm looking at 31" of drop. Do you try to hold over or do you dial in your MOA or MILs? The turrets on my VX-II aren't very good for rapid adjustment. Do I get a Butler Creek cap to put on top so I can dial in 6.25 MOA? Do you guys hunt with Target turrets or a BDC recticle that might get you close to your known yardage? [/QUOTE]
