[QUOTE="SDMF, post: 160644, member: 412"] CDS upside: 1. Simple, just dial to the demarcated yardage based upon what your rangefinder spits out. 2. Zero-stop, the scope can easily be dialed back to zero. 3. Low-profile Downside: 1. You're stuck to 1 specific load. 2. If you're shooting factory ammo and they change or discontinue the offering, you're hosed. 3. You're stuck to 1 spin on the turret, meaning you only get 15 MOA of elevation which allows for ~600-700 of elevation correction. Generic turret: Sighted in. You adjust your thinking to MOA, not "clicks". You NEVER count more than 3 clicks because the 4th click = a new MOA demarcation: [IMG]http://i122.photobucket.com/albums/o242/Horsaca/guns/P1010059.jpg[/IMG] Critter spotted @ 500, consult chart, see that 8MOA + 2 clicks (8.5 MOA total) is required for elevation correction: [IMG]http://i122.photobucket.com/albums/o242/Horsaca/guns/P1010062.jpg[/IMG] Dial to 8+2 or 8.5 MOA: [IMG]http://i122.photobucket.com/albums/o242/Horsaca/guns/P1010060.jpg[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
