I've noticed the guys extolling the virtues of the CDS often don't have much experience with other turrets (there are exceptions, of course). When you've spent some time with a turret that works correctly, it's quite easy to see the design flaws in the CDS.
One second spent checking your turret is one second you often don't have. For example, when hunting coyotes (legally, not on public roadways), I figure 3 seconds is usually how much time a person has between stopping the vehicle, and when the coyote starts moving. In that time, one has to get the gun out the window, load a round, get on target, and fire. Any extra time spent twisting turrets back to zero, because your dog twisted an extra four MOA into the scope when it jumped in the back seat, is time wasted.
Uuhhh...you got me there? I don't road-hunt so I'll have to rely on your experiences.
Are they also problematic with spot-lights?
