Don't show day light though.
Although I'd say this is all pointless unless you have a range finder to know accurately the distance in the first place.

Aye and if there is time to range there is time to dial (can do it without having to look at the turret with practise).

What I do when hunting the same area is range a few deer 'hotspots' from various shooting points so you already know the range when you next see a deer there.
