[QUOTE="ShootnMathews, post: 994404, member: 59915"] +1 I usually load two of each charge weight to save powder and bullets. And I will run out to the target every 6 shots or so and mark each weight by the bullet hole. This keeps confusion down. I also shoot on my own property so there's no waiting for "all clear" on the line. And I shoot all of mine at one dot. As far as dot size, with a 10x I'm going to guess you need around a 1.5" - 2" dot to aim consistently. But what I usually do is make several dots of several sizes, just a colored dot cut out. I then will put one staple in each of them on the target and go back to my gun. Ill sight them and pick the smallest on that I feel like I can aim precise on and then remove the others. I have lots of different brands and powers of scopes and not one size works for all. Good luck. Keep firing questions and we'll try to help [/QUOTE]
