Just curious what you guys do when shooting deer at long range. With all the adjustable turents and all the hold over bdc crosshairs just curious what you guys use and how you go about knowing where to hold when shooting out long range. I use a standard crosshair and don’t use any of the adjustable moa or bdc type crosshairs. I normally don’t shoot over 400 yards at deer. I have always just sight my rifles in at 200 yards and if the deer is at 300ish yards I hold high shoulder and squeeze trigger. If it’s 400 yards I hold the cross hairs above the deers back a little ways and squeeze the trigger. This has always worked for me over the years. I prefer to make closer shots but them big boys always seem to come out far way or at least for me. Just curious how you guys go about it
