[QUOTE="Jerry D, post: 267232, member: 14452"] Ok guys - what system do you like the best. I am only familiar with a standard duplex reticle and covered 1/4 moa turrets. I don't shoot that far currently and I use a .223 and and my standard scope turrets. I twist them whatever MOA I need up to compensate for the drop @ whatever range I'm shooting. They are not target or tactical style - Just the plain Jain turret. (I have a VX III and I just twist that little gold thing around to match up with the 0 on the knob so I can keep track of my 100 yard zero) What other options are there. I want to get into longer range shooting with a 6.5 or 7mm and I'm not sure what style turrets and reticles people favor. I've heard of metric turrets? Mil dot reticles however for me it seems converting mills to MOA is a real pain in the ***, do mil dot reticles come with mil turrets? is there such a thing? Custom BDC turrents (you just twist the turret until you get to the desired range hash mark?) (are these like MOA turrets, but instead of dialing 4 moa up which equals say, 400 yards you just twist to the 400 setting?) Range compensating reticles also exist. So that being said, can you give your opinion on what reticles and turret options you like the best. I may have missed some. [/QUOTE]
