[QUOTE="Brent, post: 53345, member: 99"] S1, You make a very good point for the LR hunter using a ranging reticle. [img]images/icons/smile.gif[/img] I figured that angle to be small enough at that distance it wouldn't make big difference is all. If the animal (the shingle in this case) was reduced in width by 10% because of the angle, it would indicate maybe 58 yards or so instead of 52 yards. A big issue at LR no less. [img]images/icons/smile.gif[/img] Dave when you said; [B]Tick for NXS is at 10 power so 10 * .59 distance delta ratio = 5.9 power.[/B] I lost you on the part where you said "the tick for the NXS is at 10 power." In the pic, it was on 7x? Where did you get the 10x? Boyd, 338/378... you boys stick to the sighter method, this here's much too complicated for you anyway. [img]images/icons/grin.gif[/img] I'll be rollin my eyes too, it'll just be when you all are shootin sighters at things that are either closer or farther away than your target, often a very different distance than they appear [img]images/icons/grin.gif[/img] By the way, without a laser RF you guys are handycapped by depth perception, the R2 isn't. How many sighters do you take before you move to your "record target" in the 1000 yard game? You all never take more than one or two, RIGHT? [img]images/icons/rolleyes.gif[/img] Sorry to take your thread off track Dave. [img]images/icons/smile.gif[/img] I took some pics through my R2 a week or so ago but must have deleated them from the camera, yours was a little better than mine were. Do you have an adapter Dave, or was it just freehand through the lense like mine was? [/QUOTE]
