[QUOTE="glocksig, post: 213989, member: 11925"] For what it's worth I used a Horus Vision Predator (FFP varmint reticle) 8.5 x 26 on a Savage Model 12 in .204 to make one shot kills on prarie dogs at 466, 487 and 580 yards on my first trip ever. No big deal for you guys but previously I had never shot a rifle at anything over 100 yards (wingshooter by trade). I used handloads and drop charts from Precision shooter's workbench. All were shot at 26x with no issues in target cover up. As an inexperienced rifle shooter, all I know is range, look at the drop chart, hold up and over on the reticle and boom. I can then track to other dogs in the town with no adjustments. Worked for me.. [/QUOTE]
