[QUOTE="MKP777, post: 1908587, member: 114383"] Hi! New here, I have a question about range finders. I shoot 6.5X55 Swedish out of a Swedish Mauser. I have a Leupold 4.5-14 scope on it, with a BDC for 140 gr rounds. I bought the Leupold 1300i TBR range finder and am trying to figure out what TBR group to set it to. Its based on calibre but they don't list mine. Also they keep listing 200 yard zero's. For my BDC I zero'd at 100. Its what it told me to do in order for that BDC to be accurate. It should be noted, I have fired this rifle/scope out to 550 yards at a range and it was hitting clay pigeons in the dirt very consistently. The BDC was spot on at that range. But now......I am hunting in a hilly area. I have to contend with elevation changes in my point of impact that are hundreds of yards. Coyotes are a problem here but too skittish to come within 400 yards in day light. So just looking for help on an idea of what to set this TBR to on this 1300i range finder so I can set my BDC to what I need for a longer range shot. Thanks for any insight! MKP [/QUOTE]
