Leupold for 243

[Zogman]

Leupold VX 4-12x40 (1 Inch) Creedmoor Reticle​

So I have been doing some reading on this reticle and some say it may work with the 243. Not exactly but with the right loads it would be very close.

Any and all comments are appreciated . I am going to need another scope and I think this maybe the one.
Thanks!

BUMP changed the title.

Why not just go on e-bay and get a discarded Daisy 880 scope? I'm sure it'd be accurate enough to plink in your basement:

I used to shoot a few Christmas catalogues bound with duct tape in a old rocking chair to practice "off hand" with .22CBs with no danger or ricochet. I guess the same could be done with a .243 without damage to your foundation or excessive noise.

The dots line up w/your 85’s pretty well. @ 500 you’ll be about 2” flatter, not enough to matter shooting from field positions.

Personally Im not a fan if reticles that are tailored for specific cartridges or loads, Id rather have a drop chart and a scope I can put on any gun I want.

Thanks. The data I looked at is the same as this.
