[QUOTE="cwinner, post: 611983, member: 17315"] I was kind of maing a rethorical point with the milk jug scenario.....using a reticle hold off is another way of making an educated guess at " Kentucky" windage......mabey I missed making the the point, but I was trying to say it takes lots of real world practice to be able to make consistant long range shots. I would hate to see someone take a shot at game based on some calculation of holdover on a reticle that they have never field verified. With most calibers ,at or a little over 400yds will put the crosshairs off the "hair" with a holdover method........ Shoot for the dime, there are enough varibales out there that makes it extremly hard to hit!! when you cant hit that milk jug every time, thats your effective range. [/QUOTE]
