[QUOTE="Guest, post: 13617"] Clint, Any scope that has a non-magnifying reticle will be more prone to shifts in POI at a set distance when changing the power settings, no matter what company makes the scope. It is quite simply a design flaw. For most practical shooting I doubt this "shift" means much. For bench rest shooters (100 & 200 yards) it means a lot. Thats one reason why bench rest shooters use fixed power scopes, most of them anyhow. A scope with a magnifying reticle is less prone to POI shift when going through the power range at a set distance. It's to bad most Americans prefer the non-magnifying reticle. Just some additional info that may influence your buying decisions. Don [img]images/icons/smile.gif[/img] [/QUOTE]
