[QUOTE="Duffy, post: 135614, member: 6286"] I'm purchasing a Sako TRG-S in .338 Lapua, the sporting variant and not the sniper's rifle. It must serve as a general-purpose rifle, and not a dedicated long-range rig. I do not expect to try hunting shots beyond 400-yards, but with such a caliber, a 500-yard shot is feasible. It will be used in Ontario, and being a non-traditional college student, I will return to relative poverty for the duration. It must do many jobs as I shall but one rifle. I may employ it in the brush, where ranges are short but want versatility. I always employ lighted reticles as they make a difference for me. 1. The German # 4 looks good for running game, but what about longer range? 2. The duplex reticle looks good for genral use, but perhaps not running game. What do you think? 3. Mil-dots look good for long-range, but what about running game? 4. Is there anything I may have forgotten or failed to consider? [/QUOTE]
