Post by: Jamieb on February 02, 2009, 10:11:02 PM: I like the idea of haveing the chart on the scope cover but I beak a few pairs a year so I keep my chat taped to the stock. Whith the flash in this pic. you cant read the chart. It's in 50yard increments from 300 to 1000 yards, in MOA

Post by: dbllunger on February 02, 2009, 10:27:59 PM: Have one on all my hunting rifles to match the load and POI. Have them on my sons and daughters rifle also. Had them for many, many years. Ole boy was talking to us one day, and he asked her what that was stuck on her rifle. She tells him it's my "cheat sheet" and then explains what it is and how to use it. Guy was amazed that she knew so much. She knows nothing about ballistics. She just checks the yardage, looks at the sheet, holds accordingly, and kills the deer. Not complicated at all. Not too many hunters understand or even know their rifles ballistics. A cheat sheet makes it so anyone will know where to hold in a given situation. Does not mean they will make the shot, but they will know where their bullet will hit if they do their part.

Yes it is. EVERY shot should be level. :hunter: :chuckle:
