[QUOTE="Bman940, post: 1463758, member: 26379"] Excellent answers! That is why LRH is one of my favorite sites to visit for information. I use 3 custom turrets for my Nikon XR scopes. As stated above knowing the limitations and uses is very important if you want real world accuracy in the Fall compared to dialing the scopes in in May. I talk to a lot of folks about custom turrets and like the ballistic's screenshot above, knowing the conditions you will use your rifle in makes a huge difference. Entering that data you will encounter at 7000 feet or in my case, frigid Kansas is a key factor. A big question I get asked a lot is can I use the MV stated on the box. Um, no. Chrono your load, as we all know, with any program the more accurate the data entered the more accurate our results will be. I also have a .243 that I have 2 custom turrets for, one for deer hunting and one for 55 gr . predator hunting. If you lie the idea of dialing in your shot to a ranged distance, a custom turret is a great way to go. Great thread! [/QUOTE]
