[QUOTE="ShawnS, post: 731207, member: 38867"] I have the Vortex Viper HS 4-16 44 BDC reticle on my 300 win. mag. The hash marks match my round very well, it is on out to 600 yards which is as farthest hash mark. This is my go to mid-range hunting rifle set up for now. However, I find the reticle hard to see on game in the morning and afternoon due to its slim thickness, but it's manageable. For paper punching this wouldnt be a issue, but for darker skinned animals it can be hard to see. I have taken a bear and multiple deer from 50 to 405 yards in the past 2 years with this scope. I regularly punch steel with this setup out to 600yrds, overall I am happy with the scope and reticle. It has been through a lot and never had any shift or the need for a re-zero. I have not shot much with higher quality scopes but for the money I paid for this scope I couldn't be happier. I have a custom rifle being built now, once it arrives I will put the scope through its paces while I save up for a nightforce. I know I wont be disappointed. [/QUOTE]
