[QUOTE="Bravo 4, post: 1828815, member: 8873"] You mentioned a BDC turret with markings out to 1200 yards, you plan on actually hunting out to that distance with it? I would not trust a BDC turret out to that distance to be accurate enough to engage animals. Targets and steel...who gives a crap?! As mentioned by others, you can get away with quite a bit (elevation, temp, pressure, DA...whatever) out to 600, but past that you better start paying attention. At 1200 the conditions can change throughout the day, even if you do not change locations, enough to cause a miss or worse. If I were to get a turret I would get one that has the MOA markings so I could use it whenever/wherever. I do as Rick said, use blue painter’s tape and a sharpie. Then I can change whatever I want-whenever I want. [/QUOTE]
