Phoenix, 50 yards, 1.5" dot. Elbow rested on deck rail. 'nuff said.
Vortex, Phoenix, single-shot rifles and handguns.
Incurable tinkerer.
Why hunt? Simple, it's BASIC. Why breath?!

snapshot, you do understand that with the varizone and lumizone scopes that arrow/bolt drop difference is a non-issue. when sighted in correctly the two bows will shoot dead on using the 40 yard chevron in the scope. just seemed like you were hung up on having to figure holdover between the two xbows.

Hi Bill Morrison,yes I do know about the two scopes.And what they do.I just wanted to find out the drop diffence between the two with the same arrow. Not much from what people here tell me, maybe 3 in. I can live with that.The Ibex almost same P.O.I. and easer to cock than the Vortex,another plus! And Hoss, I heard about Danny. Thank you both for taking the time to help me. Snapshot
