[QUOTE="Mikecr, post: 18900, member: 1521"] With the NP-1RR, Nightforce has given you an option to perform limited range estimation with the power set to 15x. Some NF reticles(like the R2) offer both range estimation, and drop compensation potential at a set power. Or, being second plane, you can crank up the power and really get precise. I'm content to use laser ranging and turret adjustments. Unless in a real tactical situation, warranting passive ranging, You could too. Do you need mildots? I have both types in hunting/target reticles. -A 1st plane Swarovski with TDS. An excellent dear scope. -A 2nd plane leupold w/Premier Reticles fine crosshair. This is perfect for long range varminting. -Although possible, I couldn't imagine using either scope in the others application. Anyone doing this is handicapped in my opinion. I'm glad that both types are offered. You just have to setup with what you REALLY need. Rather than what seems 'cool'. [/QUOTE]
