[QUOTE="PrairieGhost, post: 102680, member: 704"] It depends on the rifle for me. For a while I was putting mildot on everything. On my AR 223 with 75 gr the bullet drop reticle in the 3X9 Nikon works very well to 600 yards. I have two scopes for my 300WSM. A 4.5x14 with mildot, and the new Vortex Strike Eagle 1X6 reticle with light. The moderate to long range rifles I have been saving and adding Vortex PST minute of angle, first focal plane. Two reasons. One I can get accurate shots without setting the turrets if I am in a hurry, and two if I have the yardage I can estimate size. For example a nice looking buck at 825 yards. If his width spans 2.5 minutes of angle you multiply 2.5X8.25 and his width is 20.625 so it helps with targeting, and it helps with judging a trophy. [/QUOTE]
