I also like to play around with reticle-rangefinding, with any multi-stadia reticle. Mostly RR'ing is a guesstimate but can be quite rewarding when it all comes together. The main problem with RR'ing predators is that you will only rarely have an opportunity to use it. I use 11" back to brisket and adjust a bit for smaller (younger) coyotes, bit in 5 years of use only had the oppotunity to apply it a couple of times, but it did work even as far out as ~500 yds. (with some lucky guessing tgt. size and reticle interpolation). The MD reticle does not have to be used at the optics cald. power and the equation just needs to be adjusted for the subtension (SFP magnification) used. One alternate advantage about learning the "how to" of multi-stadia RR'ing/downrange zeroing is that you will learn more about your optic--and there's nothing wrong with that.
