[QUOTE="winelines, post: 359198, member: 16384"] Nimrodtracy As an alternative to changing the scope power, you can run the Zeiss calculator for the ballistics of your particular load and it will tell you the zero crossing for each of the reticle marks at max power. I have a 3.5x10 with the Z600 reticle and I tape the zero range for each reticle mark on my stock. I leave the scope on 10 power and the zero crossings are 3=325yds;4=435 yds; 5=545yds and 6=650yds. Shoot it at each distance to be sure, but the calculated distances were pretty close for my load. BTW, I love the scope and the reticle. I have not shot it beyond 650yds, but its great for hunting at distances inside 650 - no knob turning [/QUOTE]
