[QUOTE="theo98, post: 974936, member: 71181"] Greg, Got a VX-6 custom elevation turret from Leupold. Gave them my exact ballistics (.30-06, Barnes 168TSX custom loads, 2907fps, exact dopes from 100 to 600 yds...etc.) with a Zero set at 100yds! Turret came set from 100-800yds. I set my custom dial to 600yds and hit the X-Ring (3" center) for a .50 MOA accuracy! Set it back to 100 yds for a perfect re-zero! If you are using factory ammo that shoots accurately for you (tight groups), just submit the mnf. ballistics Leupold ask for to create a "generic dial" that should work well for you. Now, my dial was built with a temp of 86deg at sea level (got my dopes in the deep south during summer). However, any lower hunting temps (denser air) will be offset by higher altitudes (thinner air), so just have to make minor elevation corrections accordingly! Hope this helps, Ted [/QUOTE]
