[QUOTE="PrairieGhost, post: 135911, member: 704"] Retired educator I agree. I switch modes once in a while to see the difference and it's very little. I didn't look for a long range with angle compensation until I went bear hunting in Montana. One spot I sat and watched last spring was 1000 ft above the valley I expected to see a bear. The close edge of the valley was 725 yards. Drop the angle compensation and it was 760 yards. I can't remember if that would have been a miss or a hit, but when I was ready to give it up for the week I pegged an old weather beaten grey cowpie just to check things out. I can see where it would be good in the badlands where your looking down the side of the butt at a deer 50 yards at a 60 degree angle. [/QUOTE]
