Once you have determined which triangle is the correct one for your rifle caliber,
bullet weight and muzzle velocity, always remember that is the position to which
you must set the power selector when using any of the hold points on the
Boone and Crockett
™
Big Game reticle.
DETERMINE THE RANGE TO THE TARGET
Determine the range to your target using a laser rangefinder such as a
Leupold RB800 or RX
™
Series rangefinder, or utilize the traditional VX-III range
estimating feature using the space between the Duplex central aiming point
and the top vertical heavy post. For more information about how to use this
feature, consult your Leupold Riflescope Owner’s Handbook.
AIMING
The Boone and Crockett
™
Big Game reticle is a hold point reticle. For targets
judged to be 300 yards away, hold directly on the 300 yard hold point. For 350
yard targets, hold directly between the 300 and 400 yard hold points. For your
convenience, a 450 yard hold point has been included between the 400 and
500 yard hold points.
