[QUOTE="FEENIX, post: 985329, member: 14204"] YMMV, esp. in the ballistic measuring equipment (BCs published, actual, etc ., is complex and will further complicate by human factors and emotions :D:D:D), be patient and you'll see I mean. :cool: There's no short cut and it does not happen overnight, as WR (nailed it) noted, practice, practice, practice ... Having a good spotter afield to help you never hurts. A few years ago, I was out elk hunting with a buddy and we spotted a 3 cow elk 400 yards away. There's a small window of opportunity for a shot but when she moved in while feeding, the only shot I have was an a** shot. When I asked my buddy where the other 2 were, I didn't get no response after a couple of questions, I looked up (I'm in prone position), he had his ears covered and can't hear me ... can't blame him though. :rolleyes: No elk that day. :) Good luck and happy safe shooting/hunting.
