[QUOTE="4xforfun, post: 961165, member: 9172"] I hunt where the elevation doesn't change, but we may get wild changes in temp. I use the standard dials on mys scope, weather they are Nightforce or Leupold's. I make up a drop chart, a wind chart, and a holdover chart. if I see a big change in temps comming I will make up another drop chart. Same goes if I travel to a different elevation. Only takes 15 min. Also, I have a Kestral weather station set up to give "station pressure" and I set up my Shooter app the same way. When the distance gets into the four figure area, I tend to use the weather station/shooter app more..... Enter the distance, station psi and temp in the shooter app and let fly. But, if the conditions are anywhere near my chart, I am good out to 1500 yards with the dial up/windage chart alone. I don't like "special" or "engraved" scope caps.....WAY to limiting....you can't change bullets, velocity, elevation, temp, or even swap guns/scopes for that matter!! What you have is what you have. That is, of course, MY .02. Purly personal preferance. Good luck, Tod [/QUOTE]
