[QUOTE="excaliber, post: 1827733, member: 86034"] I asked specifically about average elevation and average hunting temperature. People say this type of custom turret is only good for one load at one elevation and temperature. My CDS dial was dead center accurate out to 600 yards on this rifle in temps from 35-64 degrees. I know that's only half as far as the new turret will go out to. Kenton said the temperature is good for +/- 20 deg. F and I was also told the Elevation is good for +/- 2000' The areas I hunt and plan to hunt are from 6500- 9500' Temps could go from single digits to 40+ degrees. After talking with Kenton they will not accept any calculated drops unless I give them every measurement in 50 yard increments from zero to max range. I do not have a place to do this kind of setup without some serious homework. I don't have the multiple targets to set this up either. I'm really not sure what to do to get the best accurate data for the turret. [SIZE=5][B]"For those of you that wish to use your own field data please enter it below.
