[QUOTE="cronhelm, post: 20960, member: 98"] Coyote Slayer, That is one of the methods in which the system can be used. Punch in the UTM coordinates of a wolf kill(TRP) and then go find a suitable shooting position (FFP). Punch in the UTM coodinates of your firing position. The computer will calculate the elevation and windage corrections for the exact range to the target. You will have to punch in the wind direction on the Cartridge Info page for a single FFP to TRP calculation. If you happen to have several TRP's that can be shot at from a single FFP then you punch in the wind direction directly on the GPS page. The wind direction should be punched in using the supplied "up/down" arrows. Play with it a bit and you will quickly see what I am talking about. This thing does seem complicated at first but once you get used to how it works, it is very easy to use. Clif, The ComeUp MOA is the MOA value required to go from one range increment to the next range increment. For example if you want to move from 100yds to 150yds then simply click the scope up the number of MOA displayed in this column. To go from 100yds to 200yds you would have to add the 150yd and 200yd values to get the correct "come-up". Peter Cronhelm PS: I used this computer to kill a coyote at 477 yds in a 15mph crosswind yesterday. I connected on the second round only because the coyote turned out to be much smaller than I had realized which introduced an error into the MIL range estimation. Had the coyote been the size I though he was, the first round would have connected easily. [/QUOTE]
