[QUOTE="royinidaho, post: 1074174, member: 2011"] I have 2 identical Weaver Tacticals w/Mil reticle. For me they take a back seat to nothing. For quick shots, which aren't usually necessary I'll use the reticle for hold over. Hold over is limited to 5 mils thus won't cut it for ELR. Max powder or min powder makes no difference to me. I can miss either way fairly easily.:rolleyes: The biggest problem with Mil scopes is that the turrets are usually MOA and that sux. The mil do is 0.2 Mil in diameter. A half mil is evenly bracketed by the dots on either side. Seems pretty straight forward to make a shot. However I do agree that the Mil reticle is pushed by tradition and military folk. It's completely useless for ranging (my not so humble opinion.....) [/QUOTE]
