[QUOTE="bigngreen, post: 1696166, member: 13632"] The easiest solution is not the best, unless you shooting the same elevation and all enviros are the same with a no wind condition as you hunt, taking direct numbers will put you of again. Taking a quality app like AB and a quality BC then imputing all your data accurately with speed from a quality crony will get you a LONG ways. Verify your zero hight at 300 yards, I use a micrometer here and I run my 100 yard zero hight to put me dead on at my three hundred yards dial up. Then 600 yards and 1000 yards and at 1000 you my have to make a slight tune to velocity, this will take out turret and velocity error. Once you have your ballistics ironed out in a quality app you can then trust it to make turret making decisions for your hunting elevation and temps. The speed and ease of a BDC turret is AFTER set up. I typically have about a 3000 ft elevation change and see 40 degree temp swings, so I set up my turret at 7500 ft and 30 degree temp, I won't be able to get a click of difference the entire hunting season to 600 with that set up, I always dial a real-time solution if I have the time or the situation dictates so in the end the turret is also a backup plan for a ballistic solution.
