    I think it was 3MOA I dialled. I just try and estimate the windage. I dont have a flash wind kestrel or phone "apps" etc just rangefinder and drops

    This explains why the deer had that unrelaxed pose going on.

    3MOA is 24" not bad for guestimation. Even with all the fancy gear it would be hard to get the wind right over a gully like that. Very well done

    Man nice work! I was going to say neck or head shot, the way he dropped and kicked himself along the ground. Top stuff
