[QUOTE="John Baer, post: 4061, member: 779"] I am having a 340 WBY built to get a very accurate gun. I went with the 340 so I could have 2000+ft/lb at 600 yd. I am placing a swaravski 3X12 scope on it. I would like to use the rifle to it's maximum capability Ibut less than 1000yd. How do I best sight in the rifle. If Sight in for say 400 yd and place target turrets on it Is it easy to? adjust the turret to 500, 600, 700, 800 etc then back to 400 accurately? Do target turrets have a bottom where you sight in then adjust upwards from there? Are ther any Long distance ranges in Colorado to sight in >500yd? Basically I want to be able to pull up the gun and shoot at <400yd but if I range the elk, deer etc at 683yd Id like to be confident in the shot and not just hold over. Not precise enough for me, I don't want to wound a animal. Any and all sugestion welcom. Thanks John [/QUOTE]
