[QUOTE="Hand Skills, post: 1492983, member: 103303"] I've used relatively low power scopes with relatively thick reticles for many years. They can be tough to group with because the reticle covers so much of the target. Target design plays a big role. I've found I can shoot little groups with thick reticles with the right target. Moving from 100-200, if you double the target size the optical relationship of crosshairs to target will remain constant. With my Leupold firedot I use WHITE electrical tape to make a 1moa square on cardboard. The crosshairs nearly cover the square, but due to the high contrast (black on white) it's easy to see if I'm centered on the aimpoint or not. Easy to scale to any distance. Here I see a fun link; [URL]http://www.targetz.com/targets01.htm[/URL] [/QUOTE]
