Thanks Mark! I learned the hard way yesterday. I want to be as accurate as I possibly can at short distances like 380, so as to be better on the longer one's. i spent some time on the phone with an Army Sniper who gave me some cool data which I promised not to post, but he did say exactly what...

Oops!!! I am using an app. on my Iphone. It has a feature that allows you to use the phone to give you the angle by tilting it down the slope, it is inputting an incorrect angle. The corrected MOA for that distance at a 60 deg angle is DEAD ON , no dialing, just shoot!!! LOL Sorry guys! (As far...

I did not have a P.D.A. With me and was carrying a sporter rifle which I expected to shoot on steep but not extreme angles as well as shorter distances. So basically the question was two part: 1. Determination of correct distance to target and method. 2. Application of that determination to a...

I was able to find the article where they go into detail on this: Link:The Saga Of The Uphill-Downhill Shot, Part I Check it out!

That's kind of the reason I posted. "They" had determined that the percentage had to be applied to the MOA or the Drop and NOT the yardage, because of the disparity. I shot over my intended target 3 times yesterday and hit on the third shot by aiming way low, by using the % times the...

O.K. Here is a new twist to an old question. While hunting yesterday I attempted a shot at a critter on a STEEP angle. (I did not have my normal L.R. gun) I ranged the animal at 385, the angle was approx. 60 Deg. So............ Being that I can't use MOA because of the type scope. How do I set...

Here is my first attempt at bear hunting as well as filming the hunt. Got a good video of the bear I kill. It is a little lengthy, 8 minutes, I have a shorter version with a slow mo of the vapour trail, it will be under the same channel "Bullseyebry". If the link doesnt work, just type my...

Here is the only problem I have had with the Leupold . I was hunting out West watching a river bottom and daylight was fading, 450 yards away a buck steps out and starts working a scrape. With my bare eyes I could have easily judged his antlers and made the shot at a hundred yards but not at...

Thanks for all the info. and help.

I have a Leupold 4.5 - 14 x 50mm, with a 30mm tube. Holland has just come out with an A.R.T. Reticle for Leupold, N.F. and S.B. scopes that I like and that they can put in my scope. Here's the question: At 14 power what distance am I limited to shooting deer sized game? (please keep in mind this...
