[QUOTE="Guest, post: 87342"] [ QUOTE ] I understand it is less percise than clicking but right now I don't trust the turrets. I will not be shooting over 600 yards and the crosswire is zeroed at 300 now. this puts me at -2.5 mils at 600, and +1 mil at 100. I have in the past shot quite a bit of deer and coyotes out to 500 using holdover with standard duplex recticle. So I feel confident in using it to 600 with the dots. I would really like to click in longer ranges, but I will have to test the repeatability of this scope further before I trust it to shoot out past 600. It is a possibility that the one click does not equal the 1/8 moa that its suposed to. Wind is not as big a factor where I hunt, Usually the deer come out to the fields after the wind has died off in the evenings. I usually don't shoot long in a wind over 10mph. I just don't have enough experience with that yet. [/ QUOTE ] Cowboy Determine 100 yd. distance and put up a steel tape on a board on a horizontal or vertical line for checking your movements.
