[QUOTE="trueblue, post: 270532, member: 10654"] You could get by without a PDA and Nightforce ballistics, use a free website called JBM Calculations. This will get you in the ballpark for trajectory. Also, don't need a spotting scope right away. I would however, look at getting the rangefinder as my first purchase, and Swarski makes a great one. Some guys have sucess ranging with their reticle, I am just not one of them. Eventually, you will want a weather meter, as barametric pressure and altitude, ect have a bearing on trajectory. Does not take much of a PDA to run the ballistic software. so something on the lower price range will do. I bought my ballistic software direct from Nightforce. One version for home computer, another for the PDA. [/QUOTE]
