Yeah Id bet reloading helps......especially for that big-*** boomer. The two local ranges in my area do not allow 50 BMG, but, we do have endless miles of desert around here for that.

That gun is for wussies real mean dial their own D.O.P.E...( I don't care if I can shoot a smart phone, bet it took more than one shot. My longest shot is at 1150 yards with my 260 Remington on a 24" plate. with a 15mph wind. Like to find somewhere with 1500 yards to try to get it to reach... But Im wanting to build a 7mm WSM...

Its always a good idea to keep your skills on doping a scope. Its more failsafe, IMO. Electronic do-dads like this scope system can fail if you have a power failure of some sort. There are pros and cons. Its kinda like putting all your eggs in one basket, and the bottom falling out of it. Ya know........
