[QUOTE="DSheetz, post: 1868874, member: 91783"] SHDeersniper second focal plane reticals stay the same size when you change power and thus can be used for ranging an animal if you know what the average size of that species is at the chest for example coyotes in my area run 22 - 24 inches at the front shoulder . Set your scope say on 10 power mark a 24 " target at 100 yards then read the mils move to 150 and read the mils ect . record those numbers for latter use . If I remember right the military used 18" as that's the average mans size from chin to belt buckle . You can find good info on the use of scopes for ranging now days as many books have been written on the subject by ex-military snipers as well as long range shooters. [/QUOTE]
