[QUOTE="Ernie, post: 318248, member: 13"] [b]6.5-284 XP & FFP ART Antelope[/b] Although slightly off topic since I used MOA with a 6.5-20 FFP Leupold ART reticle. Here is a uncommon doe antelope I shot at 420 yards in a 10mph full value wind using the ART reticle. I originally was going to shoot at 500 yards, but Steve was having a difficult time seeing the view screen of the camera (Glare). Rear-grip McRee stock, Kelbly trigger, McGowen barrel, Holland Radial Brake and Leupold FFP 6.5-20 with ART. Using the reticle made it easy to handle the changing distances as the animals continued to move. On a side note we learned it is difficult for the spotter to do his job and try to film at the same time:) Used the Berger 140 VLD and it performed great. 1-shot and she was down quickly. Personally I was very pleased how I doped the wind. it was fairly constant and that sure made it easier. [IMG]http://i76.photobucket.com/albums/j4/xphunter_2006/IMG_4269-2.jpg[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
