[QUOTE="Ninering62, post: 2368527, member: 114278"] I've been shooting for 50 yrs & up until 2 yrs ago & used turret adj for range. I got a .45 muzzleloader & I put a Vortex Viper gen2 FFP 5-25x50 MOA IR scope on it. I've done some tweaking to my gun & load to give me 600yd deer hunting range. I have a chrony & ran that data through a ballistics app & then spent some trigger time fine-tuning & verifying my ballistics chart. So I can now simply use my detent's in my scope to get me almost to my max effective hunting range without ever touching my turret. I'm zeroed @200yds. dn 3moa @100yds & up 9moa [USER=74293]@400yds[/USER]. Simple, practical, fast, very effective. I'd never had a chrony before 2 yrs ago nor had any ideas about ballistics apps. I wish I'd have had this understanding & ability a very long time ago. I'm sure lovin it now though. [/QUOTE]
