[QUOTE="royinidaho, post: 199362, member: 2011"] 300 RUM Thanks for the reply. I'm in the midst of the quandary scope selection. I 'must' purchase another scope soon. I settle on one scope today and two others tomorrow then jump back to the original scope.:confused: I use a 4.5 - 14 Weaver Tactical that optically is as good as any scope I've compared it with while in actual hunting conditions. I'd snap up another but the quit making them long enough ago that even used ones are hard to find. I've put the cross hairs @ 14X on deer and elk at over 1200 yards and the sight picture is plenty good for making the shot. Also, on Shawn's video I noticed that he was shooting a 15X a bunch of the time. So if I were going to spend the money this morning the scope would be an IOR 4-5-14x42 (same as the weaver) NP-8 reticle in the first focal plane. With the reticle in the FFP it is calibrated/accurate an any powder setting. That is also the same as the weaver. The first focal plane thing is pretty sweet. Just like your fixed power, the stadia is always what it says it is. The only downer with the weaver is the !/8" MOA click. However, it is nice when you really want to tweak things in at longer distances.;) [/QUOTE]
