[QUOTE="300fortheWIN, post: 1803990, member: 106693"] Great information. Thanks. As I stated in my first post I was hoping for a great scope that might be used on the 338-378 and in the future be moved to another rifle(worthy of competition). I know several of the limitations and great qualities of this Weatherby 338-378. It is a long range Hunting Rifle. It is Range Certified from the factory with a 3 shot group sub MOA. RC- 225 grains Barnes TSX. B.C.: 0.532 G1 Velocity- Muzl 3150fps. 500yds 2294 Energy(ft-lbs)- Muzl 4959. 500yds 2629 3 shot group at factory. Rad SD: 0.50 Group: 0.87 Means Radius: 0.39 I have come to understand that there is no one perfect scope that will be great at everything. Like my request for a great long range Hunting Scope that will work for long range/extreme range competition. Weight and reticle seem to be limiting factors for perfection. I will press forward with the great information and advice given in this thread. I will continue to study this thread as I try to narrow down my choices. my main goal at the moment is to convert my 338-378 from a heavy paperweight to a meat gathering machine. With a brand new All Seeing Eye. Thanks again [/QUOTE]
