[QUOTE="SDMF, post: 238926, member: 412"] It'd take me less than 30min to have a scope with lots of travel mounted and say 12-15 shots downrange in order to establish a 200yd zero and a good constant velocity then run a ballistic table. Assuming you have a precise zero and accurate velocity with relatively low ES/SD there's only 2 tricks to the above video of the 715yd pronghorn. 1. A good rest. 2. A really good read on the wind. Pretty much every in-line ML on the market over the last 20-25yrs is faster with higher BC bullets than what factory loaded 45-70's are with smokeless. Actually, I would prefer a good scope, but, wouldn't need it. A really good set of peep-sights would be almost as good though it'd take a bit longer (say 2-3hrs) to confirm sight settings at distance. [/QUOTE]
