I would also get a Ballistic reticle in a good scope and leave the knobs and dials for varminting...
I've gone back and forth a few times wrt a reticle vs. turrets. I worry a bit that I don't really like a cluttered view of the reticle for ballistic reticles; also isn't it a bit weird to have your point of aim float into space if you are holding over for wind?
Swarovski BRX reticles and Leupold Boone and Crockett and Varmint reticles, all have stadia wires to compensate for wind at the relative distances. Doping wind and using a ballistic reticle is always better than using a turret and forgetting to re-set it or adjust it for a distance and forget what your settings are...
I agree. The scope I purchased has the Rapid-Z 800 reticle, which I find is perfectly matched to the fast 300 magnums I mostly shoot.
i will not fart around with turrets on a hunting scope.
