[QUOTE="Comancheria, post: 1635431, member: 110141"] My thanks, Harper. Absolutely agree that range-finding is of primary importance. Just not sure I have confidence in the accuracy I could attain with the ballistic reticle holdovers. (Though I realize that dialing in with a turret ain't no kind of magic either.) I do plan, before going forward with any re-scoping, to pick up (a) some form of range-finder and (b) the Lab Radar. Then I will develop whatever load I intend to stick with (have been using factory ammo that is pretty good) and set up the 600 yard range I mentioned--shoot paper and a movable 1/2 inch thick 12 inch gong at 200-600 yards and play with the hold over reticles. I am leaning HEAVILY toward the Leica RF binds--as they also take angle (none down here near the Mexican border), elevation (200 feet here), and atmospherics into account. Thanks again. Russ [/QUOTE]
