[QUOTE="MMERSS, post: 1062956, member: 63748"] [FONT=Verdana][SIZE=2]I print range cards corresponding to every 1000 feet of DA with ¼ MOA precision potential increments from ½ MOA to 1MOA. The most important aspect of the card is an estimated Maximum Effective Range associated with the size of big game vitals. An associated range based off full MPH wind uncertainty is color coded. For ideal conditions MER range is circled. 1MPH uncertainty is colored in green, 2MPH yellow, and 3MPH red. If I can achieve 1/2MOA precision potential at my shooting location I will pull out the 1/2MOA card corresponding to the current DA. If I am only able to achieve 1MOA precision potential I will pull out a 1MOA card corresponding the current DA, and so on. Estimated wind uncertainty will predict MER. For example, if I’m only capable of estimating full value wind to within 2 MPH I will use the yellow marked range as my MER. If I’m only capable of estimating full value wind to within 1 MPH I will use the green marked range and so on. It is possible I may be carrying up to 12 cards for each size of game vitals.
