[QUOTE="ss7mm, post: 196843, member: 5"] Hey, don't be knocking 'ol men. I might have to take offense.;) Don't really follow your reasoning about "movie type shots".:confused: Do you believe that because somebody dials for a shot that it's something on a par with some kind of a movie stunt? With proper equipment that has been proven in the field by shooting under all conditions, I feel that dialing for a shot is the most accurate way of guaranteeing poa equals poi. I can crank my scope up and down, left and right, all day long and it always returns to zero when I set it all back to 0 and 0.;) It's true that some scopes don't track reliably and if I had one, and was serious about long range hunting, I be buying a new, properly designed, long range scope and either put the old one on a short range rig or I'd sell it.;) I guess to each his own, and I know that everybody is entitled to an opinion but, for me, Kentucky elevation and windage just don't cut it at long range. Holding off into space is just a guessing game isn't it? [/QUOTE]
