What reticle did you guys decide on?...I am in the market for one myself.

Sure does sound tempting to me also....but will you use it...or just admire it

John Burns....deer had to be shot twice...first shot high in the shoulder, just below spine(deer was running. it knocked deer down but it got up running)...4-5" entry hole..approx 1/2" exit hole. Second shot.. deer running again.. quarting away shot deer mid rib into boiler room...Again 4-5"...

Interesting post...I used a 150 grain Scirocco shot from a 7mm Dakota last year on a big Canadian whitetail. Shot was close approx. 70 yards. Bullet totally blew up(pancaked) on both shots. Got the deer but will not use them again. Thinking of another bullet...with the TSX 140 grain in the forefront

Edmac....meichele...thanks for the replies...since i will be using it most at the bench...I think angled would be my choice.....but straight would get by with both bench and field

Could anyone tell me the pros and cons of angled versus straight eyepeices. Spotter will be used 40% at rifle range, 25% varmit hunting, 25% on truck window, 10% peeking at neighbors(lol). Thanks in advance for all replies.
