[QUOTE="veriest1, post: 542958, member: 17414"] Posting from my phone so bear with me. Thanks for the good information there. I'll be sure to order some 208's to play with if my chamber is on the large side. Concerning the numbers, and part of this is my newbness tothe long range game, I'm worried about getting an accurate range reading in field conditions. As far as I can tell your drop calculation has to be spot on compared to shooting the bigger magnums. I understand that this can be done I just need to practice it before I'd be comfortable. Edit: for ranging and wind I'm going with what seems to be the tried and true formula of Leica 1600 and kestrel 3500. [/QUOTE]
