Turret Question

Recommended Posts

I would start with Vortex and give them a call and ask them about your options. I am sure you are not the first to ask this question.

I just re- ran my numbers, and I come up with 9.2" drop difference from phoenix to 7000 ft. @ 700 yards. Maybe my software is wrong, but I know the elk did not think so. LOL As I said in our pm's Deserttacoma, Kenton turrets are load specific, but they do work for that given load. I know that this particular gun will be used 90% time where my turret is set up for, and it is spot on! If you are a little off while practicing, it is not a big deal so long as you group together.

 

Lancetkenyon- I think you had one of your calculators on a 100 yard 0 instead of 200. Your drop differences for most of what you posted do not seem to jive with any calculator I try. I assure you, there is not 15" difference from phoenix to flag with a 270WSM @ 500.

I dial up for elevation and then hold off for wind using std. moa turret and stadia/hash marks in the reticle. I often find that the wind tends to gust when I am shooting, so the hold-off allows for some last second corrections. Mostly second-guessing myself, but I prefer the hold-off for wind.
