Default RE: Long Range Shooting

I guess since I haven't shot with pins set over 40 yards I don't have a reference but it seems like there would be a big gap between a 40 and 60 yard pin. I'm also not so sure about holdover on a 60 yard shot with a 50 yard pin. Again, maybe the pin gaps are smaller than I imagine.

I will be using a Nikon 800 laser rangefinder and will not take any shots I estimate over 30 yards without taking a range myself or having my guide range them for me.

I'll check with my outfitter on their stance on expandables, don't want to shoot them if they don't like their clients using them even though I think the set-up I'll have will have more than enough KE to work with them.
