[QUOTE="MontanaRifleman, post: 311523, member: 11717"] Don, I would love to be a convert if I thought the system would work for me. To be able to just dial in your range would be reeeeal sweet. The idea of getting one for Antelope and PD's sounds real interesting to me and I may go that route if it works with my scope, a NF. Still a little skeptical on the mountain hunting but will definitely give it some consideration. In my rifle, 3000' difference in elevation equates to about 1 MOA in drop. That's not bad and could be fairly easily compensated for but when you start throwing a few other variables it could get a little tricky. You're right about 30* being a rare shot. It is steeper than most people think and most shots are well under 20* But there is always the possibility and I have seen critters a 1000-1500" below me at about 1000 yds away. I like hunting canyon rims and mountain ridges where these shots can pop up. One more question... when swapping out turrets, does your POI remain the same or do you need to tweek it each time? Have a good hunt, will be interested in the results. -MR Anyone else with who has hunted mountain terrain with this or similar system is sure welcome to give their $.02 [/QUOTE]
