[QUOTE="sscoyote, post: 147616, member: 1133"] Interesting to know the history behind the MDM Cat. I guess my point is it's better than guessing. If Roy was using 30" back to brisket, at 400 yds. he should've got a mil reading of 2.1. If he was as much as 4" off the b-b meaurement, and still read 2.1 he would've only been +/- 50-60 yds. off the reading either way. Admittedly still not good enuf, but not 200 yds. off lasered. When XP shot his cow elk this last year he mil-ranged it @ .8 mil. Figuring 20" b-b he was off by 28 yds., lasered @ 666. But again still not good enuf. Out to 400 yds + tho i'll take reticle-ranging if i need to, and have time, and i think i'd chance it on a coyote out to 500 or so-- especially if i can tell if it's a young dog or an older 1. I will always use b-b profile tho as it gives the least amount of angular error as far as i can see. I have an MDM, but i haven't played with it for awhile. usually i'm reticle-ranging with ballistic reticles tho. [/QUOTE]
