[QUOTE="winelines, post: 293023, member: 16384"] I have the Burris 3-9 Bal plex on my muzzleloader, the Leu VXII 3-9 bal plex on my .270 wsm and the Leu VXII 4-14 on my .257 Wby and have hunted using all with great success. They are roughly equivalent optics from my experience and are great for hunting out to 500yd; muzzleloader to 230yd. I tried the turrets, but for inside 500yds the bal plex reticle allows a quicker shot. I just chrony the load and run a ballistic program. For example, on my .257 I set the crosshair to hit about 1.8"high and and then shoot at the computed distances for the respective dots and fine tune the distances. Dot 1 is on at 340, dot 2 at 460, and the top of the plex at 600. You just have to remember 3 numbers - the distance for each dot. But be sure and shoot at each distance/dot; the ballistic computations will only get you close. [/QUOTE]
