All you do is select your ballistic chart based on your individual ballistics, then select zero within that chart at 100, 150, 200 or 300,, then point at the target, shoot your laser beam, and you get a drop compensation in inches or MOA and angle to the target (not TBD like Leupold).

[QUOTE="jhlobik, post: 389983, member: 18585"] Hey, I was just in your shoes. I had Zeiss Victory PRF mono rangefinder for 6 month. Great rangefinder.
