[QUOTE="JustMe2, post: 1876383, member: 42494"] Since you're looking at buying a new scope and a new rangefinder, take a look at the Revic PMR 428. It basically has a built in Kestrel ballistic app and inclinometer (which the Kestrel does not have). The computer inside the scope adjusts ballistics for density altitude, temperature, your barrel's incline, scope tilt, wind drift, Coriolis, etc. and it does it real-time as you are hunting climbing up and down mountains as the temp, etc. changes. The scope has all these sensors inside for temp, altitude, incline, a level, etc. I purchased the Revic RX1 MOA christmas tree reticle and use the reticle's holdover and holdoff for 500 yard and closer shots which is faster than twisting the turret. Past 500 yards I twist the elevation and windage turrets. The only thing the scope doesn't do for you is range the target. For ranging, I use a Leica [SIZE=4]GEOVID 10x42 HD-B[/SIZE] binocular. With this Revic scope you have no fiddling with multiple gadgets when trying to shoot quickly because the computer and display (HUD) are built inside the scope. Also if you shoot up or down a mountain slope, the scope knows where you are pointing the barrel and compensates for the incline, level tilt, and wind compensation ballistics immediately as you move the barrel up/down and left/right.
