[QUOTE="yobuck, post: 1438844, member: 12443"] I would like to be able to watch as someone used a scope reticle for ranging in a L/R hunting situation, and then dial and make a first round hit, especially when the distances start getting out to 7 or 800 yds. or further. Fact is very few of us have ever, or will ever, be involved in a sniping situation where enemy return fire is a possibility. I did read the book written by the Ultimate Sniper, and learned that he actually did very little dialing, and preferred doing as little as possible. His favorite among the guns available to him was a 300 Win Mag with a Nightforce scope zeroed at 400 yds. From there he just held up or down center mass for the vast majority of his kills. There was no mention at all of using a reticle for ranging and dialing information. For sure a rangefinder was involved, but id feel it a safe bet that it wasent just a scope reticle. [/QUOTE]
