[QUOTE="SBruce, post: 709030, member: 21068"] Limited experience here, only about 180 rounds worth on a new 6.5-284. Shot out to 800 yds on 3 separate days. Click test indicated (shot twice for confirmation, and rifle was putting bullets touching each other at 100)...........click values on my individual scope were .375 IPHY or .358 MOA per click at 100 yds through the first full revolution above the zero. Pretty course adjustments really, but necessary in some cases to get to 1000 yds with one revolution on the dial I would guess. Good power range, good reticle thickness, not too heavy nor too long, and good optics IME so far. The scope is definately capable of sub 1/2 moa groups from 100 on out to 700 probably even further (wind was giving me issues at 800 and I wasn't shooting with a spotter). When the side focus is set at 200, it's parallax free and fully focused at 200 also, which is a huge time saver when a quick shot at a 400 or 500 yd coyote is needed. Only issue I had was most likely environmental, very very low evening sun directly in my eyes. Had a bedded coyote at 440 yds and all I could see in the scope was white light. I was probably only able to see the yote in the binos and rangefinder because of using the pickup roof as a sunshade........got out and laid prone on the ground to shoot......couldn't shoot, couldn't see. Hope this helps. [/QUOTE]
