[QUOTE="johnnyk, post: 2367495, member: 307"] I've successfully used holdover this year on two whitetails @ 400yds. I put the yardage in my ballistic app and it called for 2MOA at that distance for 162gn ELD-M / 7mmRemMag. My Vortex Strike Eagle 5-25X56 is FFP and when the deer steps in the path (which is already flagged at 200, 300 & 400yds) I crank up the power and used appropriate pre-determined mark. Pretty simple and effective setup. The path is only 508yds, the deer usually cross at the above cited yardages. For 0-250yds, it's hold low and then dead on at 300yds, at 400yds use 2MOA mark and 500yds use 4MOA. Now if I'm hunting over a cutdown and activity is a bit more relaxed, I will dial. [/QUOTE]
