[QUOTE="dhaidak, post: 1498602, member: 88229"] awesome thread; i live in maryland but have the very good fortune of having a good friend in wibaux, mt; we go out each october for birds but on multiple occasions i have drawn an antelope tag and add this to the trip, so far have gotten 4 of the "goats", longest shot 800 yds at a 20 degree declination, cosine .94; i use a swarovski z3, 4-12, on a custom .280 ackley; the scope is in mildots; i ranged the antelope thru the scope and it was exactly half a mildot thru the chest; knowing an adult is 14-15 " inches deep just aft of the withers gave me pretty much 800 yds on the dot; compensating for the cosine figured to be about 750 yds; the lowest detente on the reticle was 733yds for a 160 gr nosler accubond; placed the reticle on the animal and down it went; just love that math [/QUOTE]
