Thread: Holdover Reticles

Depending on rifle/scope combination I dial elevation in any strong wind so I'm only holding for wind.
If I'm in a rush and under 300m will use hold over.
Really like FFP the reticle holds true in at any magnification. In the last year just started using a Mil FFP scope and been using Accuracy First Speed Drop system ( there's a few videos on the net ) and the Mil reticle matchs the
distance from a set minimum and maximum distance with a .2 Mil accuracy threshold. On my 223 and scope I'm good for 200m to 500m using this system.

eg.
2 Mil = 200m
3 Mil = 300m
5 Mil = 500m
2.5 Mil =250m
3.1 Mil =310m

And have shot a lot of goats and a couple of deer with this system.
