Its a very effective system and will beat a person relying on a rangefinder and dials all day every day.

I don't disagree, that's what I've done for 40+ years. But there are occasions when I've cocked that up (and I reckon you learn more from your missed shots as opposed to crowing about the hollywoods) and it happened a couple of times last weekend. I really like @tikka s idea and intend to see if I could make that work for myself. Ya gotta keep upping your game I reckon.
