[QUOTE="ohiohunter, post: 1157860, member: 55230"] Sounds like you are getting to know that rifle rather intimately and that is all it takes. There is nothing wrong w/ kentucky windage when you know your capabilities and are able to make the proper adjustments in the field. Though you won't always have that little stick or rock to aim at so I'd abort forming that habit b/c on game you may be hanging your cross hairs in space. If you can accurately gauge 80" for a hold over and wind I'd say you're good to go, but Idk about stretching it to 650 w/ 15' of hold over. The 500yd 6.5' hold over is pushing it a little IMO, BUT if you're proficient and have enough energy I say go for it.. proficient being key word here. I'm not familiar w/ the round but if you are subsonic at those ranges you're repeatability may be in question. How big is your gong and how big is your game? [/QUOTE]
