[QUOTE="Senderofan, post: 444835, member: 13831"] Well...from the looks of it.....the Shepherd looks like there is a series of smaller circles going down the reticle ( But they claim their circles can get you out to 1000 yards...without dialing any elevation)....like you describe the Nikon BDC reticle only with more options for longer range. I think that would be easiest for you...over actually dialing in your dope ( Clicks ). Having said that....there is an outstanding company that makes custom turrets calibrated for bullet drop. But I would caution you on that. The turret knobs will be calibrated for a certain bullet and load. If you ever change your favorite recipe...then all bets are off. Here's the link: [URL]http://www.kentonindustries.com/[/URL] ( Reading further..Kenton says their knobs are calibrated in yards...so you could get a popular brand scope with any reticle and replace the elevation turret) I know what you're looking for. I have a buddy who owns an older Tasco...a really decent one that was made with Japanese glass. His has an elevation turret numbered in yards. I have never seen anything like it. Good Luck....You'll find something that works for you. Wayne [/QUOTE]
