[QUOTE="Senderofan, post: 444821, member: 13831"] I think guys have had very good luck with Shepherd Scopes: [URL="http://www.shepherdscopes.com/"]THE ONLY RANGE FINDING SCOPE THAT DOES NOT REQUIRE 3 HANDS TO OPERATE[/URL] ( There is a link with the all caps sentence ) I think the Shepherd is really easy to work with once you get it zeroed...or dialed in. You'd probably save a few bucks as well...not knocking Huskemaw. I'm sure they're an amazing scope and probably a great value...but if you're just starting off....you might want to ease into things. BTW, I've never seen either the Shepherd or the Huskemaw. I own or have owned many of the brands out there...too many to list...from the low end of a Tasco at one time to NightForce, IOR and Premier Heritage now. The other alternative is for you to study about m.o.a ( Minute of Angle ) and mil-radian. Once you get a handle on these two....get a decent ballistics program...your world opens up tremendously.
