I'm an Open class shooter usually so I was dialing the turret. I wasn't sure I'd like the floating center dot reticle but it works pretty good to center on round kill zones. The shape keeps my 45, 50, and 55 yard marks plenty separated to differentiate those far distances (at least at 24x). I think Eric told me this particular wheel has a functional diameter of 8.5inches. I also like the idea of smaller profile for reducing chances of snagging the wheel on something and ripping the guts out of the scope. When rotated to keep the bulk of the wheel tucked in next to the gun, nothing sticks up higher than turret level, so it's easier to put in the soft case. ![]() The comma/nautilus shape is awesome for having a large functional diameter, with a small foot print. ![]() Scope wheel marks in the vid are when the scope is used I will eventually see how the marks work out when ranged at 16x and I'll try to remember to come back and post my thoughts on that. My example uses about 180 degrees from 10-55 yards. (man I hate hearing my own voice like this) ![]() It wasn't recorded with the intent to share publicly but it'll save a lot of typing so here it is, raw and uncut.
