[QUOTE="MarshMello, post: 1869023, member: 67621"] The only thing that changed from your custom dial is to glance at a range card and dial that number instead of your yardage. Everything else is the same. How to get that number is where the varying opinions are. Kestrel or app, whatever flavor you like. Do it ahead of time. Close enough is good enough. 600 yards and inside you won't be more that 1 moa off. My 300wsm changes like 1MOA per 1000' of elevation. Make a chart and put in a wrist card or on your stock or in your scope cover. Make an extra card if your elevation changes are extreme. Wind will be a far greater influence on your shot than 1-3MOA of elevation on an Elk sized target. My rangefinder is the only electronic device I depend on for my shooting solution at the moment of truth. Everything else is worked out ahead of time. Of course you can range with a FFP mildot reticle and with lots of practice get very close but for longer shots on game I really prefer knowing +/- a yard. [/QUOTE]
