I gave him comparisons (Actual loads) from my Shooters App at both 500 yards and 1000 yards of the same cartridges and similar cartridges, using different bullets. Some if it...

    Good Glass, Good Reticle (Different for different folks), Lit Reticle, and Zero Stops are all good stuff. There are some really cool scopes out there, that have a combination of external turrets, FFP reticle. lit reticle, and internal information (Heads up display), where one doesn't even have...

    Dialing vs Holdover

    Jack Of Adjusting All Ways & Master Of None...🙂 This is where I typically say, I can help you answer your question(s) better by a phone call than texting or typing. It is just figuring out what is going to work best for that person, with that scope for that type of hunting situation.

    Hunting Oryx

    I have no doubt you will have a exit with your bullet, given the speeds you are running. Gemsbok (Another type of Oryx Gazella) in South Africa run close to 500 pounds. Did you get one?

    Are you a sitter or stander when reloading?
