I have been debating trying a Leupold or Swarovski scope with ballistic type turrets that are dialed in for a direct hold at a pre-set number of clicks.

Has anyone used this in a hunting situation and can offer advice or guidance?

I usually just hold over and fling lead.

the Swarovski works just great and is easy to use...

read its manual:
