| Extremely light (7.8 ounces) and compact, Leupold claims accurate readings of 500 yards on game animals, 600 on trees or terrain. Dave got accurate readings at least 100 yards further than claimed. The rifle is custom pre-’64 Winchester 70 .30-06 built by the late Keesey Kimball topped with an older Leupold Vari-X III 2.5-8X. | ||||||||||||||
One approach to long range shooting is “clicking” by using click-adjustable turrets to dial in the appropriate settings for elevation and windage. Another approach is to incorporate additional aiming points in the reticle. |
