[QUOTE="Broz, post: 901728, member: 7503"] That is something to consider especially with less expensive offerings. But out to 500 yards where the OP is working it would have to be really bad to keep off kill zone. Two moa or so which I would hope not on a 3 moa dial up. I would think a problem of this magnitude would be obvious zeroing at 100. I feel exposed turrets are the way to go. I much prefer dialing for a center hold over holdover. And even if the scope turrets are off of their advertised .25 moa this is an adjustable condition in a $10 app like "shooter" So I would not agree with your statement " Exposed turrets are only good if the scope tracks." Unless you are dealing with a scope that changes tracking values each time dialed. Then I would remove that scope and have it repaired, replaced or use it to pound tent stakes.:D Jeff [/QUOTE]
