Long Range Hunting: Hold Over Reticle, Dial or Both?
You’re right. Sorry. Definitely can’t disagree with you. But, it’s happening with a BT or holdover. Not just one or the other.- JJ1179

No, not true at all. Taking shots and killing game.- JJ1179

Long Range Hunting: Hold Over Reticle, Dial or Both?
So you zoom in and shoot without dialing in your scope? At what point in the process does that take place? I’m not being rude or sarcastic. I’m honestly asking to learn more.- JJ1179

Long Range Hunting: Hold Over Reticle, Dial or Both?
No, I typically don’t leave it on the minimum power. That’s what I use my binoculars and spotting scope for. So you’re telling me that you use your scope on minimum power to locate game, zoom in to your preferred power once you find animals, range the animal, dial in your scope, and take a...- JJ1179

Long Range Hunting: Hold Over Reticle, Dial or Both?
Ok, great point. I agree that holding close to or using the crosshair is more effective. That makes a lot of sense. That’s the kind of info I was looking for. Thank you! Yes, I use a Christmas tree reticle with holdovers for range and wind, so I’m not necessarily out in “no man’s land”.- JJ1179

Long Range Hunting: Hold Over Reticle, Dial or Both?
Why would I look through 4 dope charts figuring out what power I’m on? Do you assume that I just sit there and randomly spin my power magnification for fun and not know what power I’m on? No, I don’t. I keep it on the power I prefer and leave it. Probably similar to you! I’m just throwing out...- JJ1179

Long Range Hunting: Hold Over Reticle, Dial or Both?
Fair point. You didn’t say faster, you’re correct. My apologies. Why in your opinion is it more accurate? Isn’t your BT developed off your load? So it takes into account your bullet grain, caliber, elevation, ambient temperature, etc,, correct? Well, what’s different about my holdovers? They...- JJ1179

Long Range Hunting: Hold Over Reticle, Dial or Both?
See, if you’re glassing animals and already know ranges at the areas you’re glassing, you’re going straight to the scope - no ranging necessary. One less step. And, I’m not doubling anything or doing any math in my head. I already have dope charts for each power and each pin and I already know...- JJ1179

Long Range Hunting: Hold Over Reticle, Dial or Both?
Maybe I am naive or missing something here, so please explain how this is “the best answer”. I truly am asking to learn more. Let’s say your glassing a ridge line and you see 4 or 5 elk come through a clearing and you know that clearing is at 373 yards, so you dial in for your shot, only to...- JJ1179

Stocky’s VG2 Question
I recently bought a used rifle that has a Stocky’s NextGen Ultralight Carbon Fiber VG2 Stock. It currently has a Magpul DBM. I would like to remove the Magpul DBM and install a Hawkins Precision Oberndorf Bottom Metal. My question is do you know if I can switch them out on the VG2 or is it...- JJ1179
