[QUOTE="Eaglet, post: 765991, member: 3756"] LouBoyd, I have a hard time fully agreeing with you. There's a lot of truth as it was in my grandpa's belief that his mule was better than my dad's 4x4 Willy's pick-up. Of course mules have their place today as your way of going about it if you don't have a good ballistics program to use. We all understand the need to verify that our data being used is putting bullets on target, but once that's done by field shooting, we have nothing but benefits when using good ballistics programs. I just love shooting at rocks of what ever at 1500 yards up-hill and down-hill (which by the way some wrongly believe that the correction is the same weather up-hill or down-hill), at what ever conditions, using spin drift and Coriolis corrections without having to do any calculations by hand and so forth. Seeing dust kicking off "right on target"... it's a thrill for me how precise the program I use can be. I know there are some geniuses out there that can do it in their heads but that's not for me nor many of us... :) [B]Again we're off topic!!!![/B] [/QUOTE]
