Just slapped a v1 5-20x Zulus on my 700mm Dynamic .30. After a couple calls with DNT to help get the ballistics chart dialed and uploaded to scope (A+ customer service). I didnt realize i was operating off the outdated Arken app, and needed to use the new DNT app. I addition, shots are 150y had been 6+ inches high, and DNT's advice was to lower the BC of the slugs I shoot (Javelin Patriot 60grain) down to 0.100. Those two adjustments made all the difference in the world.
i got it zero'd at 50y and checked the LRF at 60/70/80 y. its a fairly fast, flat shooting slug so even at 100y my MOA is 7.92. So I decided to hit the squirrel fields and push things to see how the ballistics programming was at 150+. On the ballistics chart at 200y my MOA is 30.80. I have to say that the program was so spot on it was scary. I had shots on Squirrels present at 90 yard to 185 yards. Took out 6 in 30 minutes, fired 7 times and the one miss was user error.
I've been using MOA holdover or dialing in shots for the last 5 years. never going back...almost feels like cheating TBH. If you still are shooting traditional glass at long range it's worth giving a digital scope with a built in LRF a try.
