    Should I get a Kestrel 2500NV?

    Re: Should I get a Kestrel 2500NV? Thanks everyone for their input. I decided to take advantage of the price and get the 2500NV. I will start off with this, see and learn how it works and if I feel I need to step up to another model later I will. I understand it won't show me the wind...

    Should I get a Kestrel 2500NV?

    Re: Should I get a Kestrel 2500NV? Thanks TJ. That's what I was thinking. Though I don't have an iphone or droid but I do have a blackberry, so I was thinking about getting gunsim.

    Should I get a Kestrel 2500NV?

    I have an opportunity to get a LNIB Kestrel 2500NV locally for $110. Just wondering if there are any opinions on this particular model as far as using it for some long range work. My only reservation being perhaps I should hold off and get an upgraded model like the 4500 later on. I'm new to...

    Re: Aiming using the Reticle ... Is it this easy? Holy Crap - This has got to be the most active and helpful forum I've been on. Thanks guys. The light in my head literally just got flipped on to understanding this.

    Rifle Scopes Aiming using the Reticle ... Is it this easy?

    Re: Aiming using the Reticle ... Is it this easy? Thanks Everyone. Wow, so this is even easier than I thought then. I just think I finally figured this out. I was still thinking of inches relative to MOA and distance and that's not what to do. If I'm off by 5moa looking through my scope...

    Rifle Scopes Aiming using the Reticle ... Is it this easy?

    Re: Aiming using the Reticle ... Is it this easy? Yes, I should have specified FFP. And yes, I just realized my math is off above. Don't I have to adjust for distance??? If my target is @ 400 yards and my shot shows 2 MOA below in my reticle, wouldn't I just come up .25MOA, 1 click (sorry)...

    Rifle Scopes Aiming using the Reticle ... Is it this easy?

    At the complete and utter risk of sounding like a complete newb (which I am) I am going to go ahead and ask this. If I'm wrong I need correction and if not I need confirmation. My scope is an MOA/MOA scope and my reticle has hash marks on the reticle that designate 2 MOA between hashes. I'm...

    Rifle Scopes Scope Click Adjustment Formula

    Re: Scope Click Adjustment Formula Thanks guys for all the info. I think I understand what everyone is saying now. I was thinking about it too much! And obviously it shows my experience lvl is low. It's amazing though how much insight you can gain and how the way you look at things can change...

    Rifle Scopes Scope Click Adjustment Formula

    Re: Scope Click Adjustment Formula OK, Thanks. So really what I'm hearing is that the process of "holding over" or using "Kentucky Windage" is better than "dialing in" - assuming I have a precision reticle.

    Rifle Scopes Scope Click Adjustment Formula

    Re: Scope Click Adjustment Formula Really? Seems more like a waste of ammo than more accurate. But what do I know? I'm just a newbie. So I really don't need a fine scope with precision adjustment. Good to know.

    Rifle Scopes Scope Click Adjustment Formula

    Hello All - I have been thinking about getting into long range precision shooting lately and have spent some time thinking about how to make adjustments to my scope, after the first shot, when shooting at targets at certain ranges. I know I'm probably not the first person to come up with this...
