[QUOTE="Ian M, post: 6559, member: 25"] Texas, Now that would have been some windage! We have twisters up here, even had one recently up in the northern forest. Killed the hell out of a lot of trees, not many people up there so no-one was hurt. Have shot the NIKONS on .300 Win mag., nothing bigger to date. I am very confident that they will take some abuse, tho. SS What your friend is doing is slick and has to work. I made up a simple chart that I make on a label for the Duplex ranging, just happens to be near identical to what you guys are doing. A lot of what you outlined will also work with mildots. I believe that they are more useful as you have multiple "contant" reference points that can be varied by moving the power ring. Duplex pretty much only gives a person one holdoff, on top of the post as a constant. Mildots enable a similar quick-read and also some very nice holdoffs. Any preference, pointed posts vs flat-tops?
