    They'll also probably be slightly different to advertised due to your exact load.

    If you're talking about dials and not the reticle then disregard the first part of what I said !

    I find holdovers useful, can save a lot of time when needed.
    Yeah it says on the Nikon site theres a calculator to use with a certain load but I'm leaning further and further towards the plex and turret combo.

    Polymer mags seems to be thicker walled as the steel mags I have tried can be filled with the AMAXs.
