[QUOTE="lambeau, post: 1428777, member: 68017"] BS Shooter - imagine I would use the reticle for both holdover and range estimation, depending on the hunting situation. Was able to make the rounds at some local sporting goods stores this week and take a look at a few of the scopes listed. Going to steer away from the NF SHV due to it being FFP and having capped turrets. Same for Burris being FFP. In looking at both the Vortex PST II and their HS-T models, I much preferred the PST as it seemed like it would be more durable albeit that comes with the downside of some additional ounces. The turrets also seemed more substantial. None of the stores had a Zeiss Conquest V4 4-16 in stock but in looking at the other models it would appear to be a toss up compared to the Vortex PST in terms of optic and build. Will probably put the SWFA 3-15 2FP on the back burner given it's back ordered, and the more I think about it would prefer to get a scope with a zero stop. That said, though, for the $$ it seems like a pretty good deal. [/QUOTE]
