Do want........

When I get the scope for my new rifle, I'll have to see about trying to get out there. Need to see how accurate the BDC will be with various loads.

Long distance shooting is a lot harder than it looks. I found out that I need a lot more practice at it.

I know. My eyes suck, and most my current guns are too hard to mount optics on. Generally with open sights I can't hit much past about 3-400 yards, and only if it's big enough for me to see...

I have an AR30 in 300 Win Mag with a 32x scope on it. Its dead accurate to about 300 meters, but going out to 450+ meters I'm have difficulty getting the holdover right for milk jug sized targets.

That's why I like BDC scopes. If you know the range, they take most of the guesswork out of holdover. Still gotta sort the windage, though.
