Well first off hello everyone, I've been a lurker on these forums for some time and I'm finally getting around to participating with this great group.
A little about myself, I'm a Michigan native, the highest elevation on my farm where I hunt is a whopping 900 feet above sea level. While Christmas shopping for my family this past weekend I ended up treating myself to a Leupold VX-6 3-18x50 with the CDS system, and a Tikka T3 in 7mm Remington Magnum to put it on.
I bought the gun with a public land elk hunt in mind this fall. Well once I find the load the gun likes, I will send my info into Leupold to get my custom dials made. My problem is as a flatlander, the 900 ft elevation farm that I shoot on does not fall within the 5000 foot elevation range that I plan on hunting on this fall. I still haven't completely narrowed down my area, but I assume it'll be 8000ft plus. I just started clearing out a range that will let me shoot 500-600 yards for practice(no I don't plan on shooting an animal that far)
My question is, do I order 2 sets of dials? Or do I just plug it in for mountain elevation and deal with it back here at home?
