[QUOTE="Rimfire, post: 193553, member: 8839"] I think you covered it all "the reticle choices are confusing at best" "Id like to get the rifle dialed in to where a 500 - 600 yd shot is doable" Dialed in is just that turn the turrets Multiple range cards are a bad idea Point blank range doesn't have to be pretty much point blank Dial up and hold POA=POI As you can see from the range reticle above you need to be on a set power and as you get out further there is a lot of air between readings. You can send your scope out and have target turrets installed by Leupold If it were me I would Dial up and kill it (KISS) I've hunted with enough people and seen enough missed due to Reticles, multiple range cards and splitting dialing and reticle adjustments to keep me doing what i'm doing. Some may not agree and if it works for them great. But when it comes down to it it's hard to beat a Duplex with target / tactical turrets, rangefinder and a proven live fire drop chart. Just my .02 [/QUOTE]
