Long range without electronics.....you bet.

Today I ran the Accuracy first Whiz wheel in parallel with my kestrel Today and found that with my 308win/175tmk I was able to make hits to a grand with results that were as good a as I can shoot. I used a basic rangefinder and the wheel and shot and then checked with my leica/kestrel combo and results were always within a tenth or two.

I'll be working on field measurements with the reticle in the future to see how far my judgment tolerance is on deer sized critters once I can figure out a reference besides fence posts.

If you have any interest in a fully analog system that accounts for altitude, temperature/pressure and allows you to fine tune more than a printout with 50 or 100yd corrections for what you guessed the conditions to be last week from 800 miles away.....this is it.

Pretty cool - worth the price of entry? Seems like something like this would force a guy to do better understanding what’s going on vs scrolling around on a phone while enjoying the great outdoors.

So no rangefinder?

He says that he used a basic rangefinder

Currently I am using just a maven range finder to verify my guess for the reticle ranging. I'm usually shooting bird shit off of rocks so it's tough to tell if the shit is 6" long or 4" long from 500yds. I'm going to work on some more ranging with the reticle practice with some deer sized cardboard cutouts.
