[QUOTE="Bill in MI, post: 1092108, member: 90858"] 1st time poster here, so thx for all advise and comments Background: I just upgraded from a Nikon Monarch 3x9 to a Swaro Z5 3.5-18x44 BRX. This is to be mounted on a tried and true 9 year old custom Win M70 300WSM shooting Nosler custom loaded 180g Accubonds. I am not a true long range shooter but will get to practice out to 400 yards. Questions: Can you explain why the reticle is only 'accurate' at a set magnification? Do you have to be set on 18x even for close range shots under 200 yards? If I were to shoot at 10x for instance, what deviation would there be at 100 yards, 200 yard etc? Thx for helping with some basics here. Bill [/QUOTE]
