[QUOTE="ronedog, post: 327072, member: 21087"] Yeah, this helps. I don't have any friends that reload, but everyone I talk to says they wish they did. I appreciate the "too much information" attitude, it's very helpful for people like me to gain a better grasp on this. I'm certainly going to print out this thread and then go to the reloading table and the field and begin the process. What do you think about using turrets, vs. those reticles with the drops already calculated? I had a hunting buddy that looked at my scope and said I ought to put one of those turrets on it like his. At the time I had no clue what he was talking about (last year), but I've been reading and finally learned what a turret was for. However, I thought you could just buy any turret and then put it on my scope, as long as the scope had the screws it could mount on to (apparantly, my hunting buddy said my scope was set up to receive a turret), but after sending a question to the BOTW guys they said their turret is a custom built turret for your load and gun, but they made it sound like they only would do it on their huskemaw with their turret. My Scope is a simmons and it would be nice to dial in my yardage rather than estimating and holding high. Any suggestions? [/QUOTE]
