[QUOTE="Dr. Vette, post: 397521, member: 22335"] Take a look at the Zeiss Reticle Calculator here (upper right hand of the page) as you can input load data or use factory load data (lower right side once you sign in). [URL="http://www.zeiss.com/c1256bcf0020be5f/Contents-Frame/3dc0003746ab21148525726200057786"]Welcome to Carl Zeiss Optical, Inc.[/URL] [COLOR=transparent][FONT=Verdana]1) Click on "Obtain Factory Ammo Data", or for handloads click on "Obtain Bullet Reloading Data[/FONT][/COLOR] [COLOR=transparent][FONT=Verdana]2) Enter any necessary changes to altitude, velocity, temperature, etc. and then click on "Submit Data".[/FONT][/COLOR] [COLOR=transparent][FONT=Verdana]3) Click on "Reticle Analysis Form" after steps 1 and 2 have been completed.[/FONT][/COLOR] Then, hit "Auto Pick Reticle" you find the one that matches your load best, followed by "Optimize Power" to see what power will give you the best match. For a Nikon, check out: [URL="http://www.nikonhunting.com/SpotOnRegistration/"]Nikon Spot On™ Ballistic Match Technology Program[/URL] FYI, if it's a rain/fog/snow storm, you're not going to be able to see far enough to shoot long range and/or need your range finder anyway. I always start a hunt (guided hunt out West, that is; here in MI it's rare to shoot over 300 yards) with new rangefinder batteries and spares in my backpack. [/QUOTE]
