[QUOTE="AJ Peacock, post: 276025, member: 4885"] Shooting your 300Win mag with 190gr Berger VLD's at around 3000, there is around 1moa difference between 725yds and 750yds. Shooting the 308, you will have at least a 1moa spacing over 25yds a little closer. Depending on your elevation. Shooting your 300WM, sighted in at around 560yds, the top post (10moa above crosshair) will be on at around 100yds. The bottom mark (20moa below the crosshair) will be on at around 1100yds. Out to 600yds, the NP-R2 will work pretty well on biggame on the 300WM, however on the 308 I think you will want a little finer graduation, especially if you are shooting smaller targets (whitetails, coyotes etc.). Beyond 600yds, you will probably want finer graduations regardless of which rifle you choose. Given the info you've stated, I'd probably get the R1. Especially if you will be shooting smaller animals. Hopefully someone else will pipe in with an opposing or supporting opinion. AJ [/QUOTE]
