Redfield Accu-Range with 30-30

[furfaro]

I just put a Redfield Revolution 2-7x33 with accu-range reticle on my Marlin 336 30-30. The instructions do not have information on how to use the reticle for 30-30 or any slower moving calibers for that matter. Does anyone know if this reticle will work effectively with the 30-30? I was thinking maybe use the center as 50 yards, then each progression after that as 100, 150, 200.

Any insight would be appreciated. Thank you.

in my opinion... it should work. You just need some range time and figure it out. Usually these reticles work when the magnification is at its highest. .

I had a bolt action |Savage slug gun with a Leupold with the same reticle that the Redfield has. and i could punch milk jugs out all day to 250 yards with premium slugs and those are around the same trajectory at the 3030. Give it a go and spend time learning your gun/scope combo. Have fun.

Thanks. Maybe I started this project too close to hunting season to play around with it too much.
