[QUOTE="PrairieGhost, post: 160645, member: 704"] I have a couple of old Leupold tactical scopes that are very good. Since the mid 1990's I have had trouble. The last one run me $1299 and I worked and worked on my 300 mag to get a good group. One day I put an old 1977 Bushnell 3X9 Sportview on it and cut my group in half. I sent the scope and two targets to Leupold and they sent me a new scope. I never mounted the new scope, I didn't want to tell someone it was good and know better. I sold it new in the box for $850. The new reticles that keep coming out make me want to change scopes often. The minute of angle I have on my Vortex I like, and the last Vortex I bought had the new C2 battle reticle. Now I want it on all my long range rifles. This one is on a new 6.5 Creedmoor and I have used the reticle to 1316 yards. It was beyond the capability of the reticle so I did have to dial 12.5 inches on the turret and use the 38 minute mark on the reticle. That was last fall so memory is a little fuzzy. I may have used 32 inches and dialed 18.5 All I do remember is there was so much wind that I wanted to use the reticle rather than dial for windage. [ATTACH=CONFIG]11584._xfImport[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
