[QUOTE="Varmint Hunter, post: 75218, member: 313"] I had the Leupold Varmint reticle retrofitted into an older 6.5x20. Cost was $149 + S&H. I mounted the scope on a custom 7STW rifle. I sighted the 160gr Accubond load to be dead on @ 200yds and then moved over to the 500yd range. I fired 3 rounds at 500yds and was hoping that they were somewhere on the small target. A quick trip down range revealed a 3" group that was a mere 1" high of point of aim with the 500yd crosshair. I'm impressed. Naturally, the 10mph & 20mph windage dots are highly dependant on bullet velocity and BC. I called Leupold and gave them my exact velocity and reported BC for the Accubond and they told me that the dots will represent 18mph & 36mph with my load. So far I like the new reticle. It will be going to Wyoming in a couple of months. We'll see how it works afield. [/QUOTE]
