Home Forums Gear Free Classifieds Schmidt Bender 3-12x42 Precision Hunter P3 Mil-Dot

That is tough question as there are many variables.

A couple factors that determine the distance is velocity of the rifle, obviously the faster rifles will extend the total range of the BDC.

What is your zero distance? Depending on the rifle, I personally like a 250-275yd zero.


To set this scope up, I did the following:

#1 Sighted the rifle for 250yds, and unscrewed the cap on the BDC...lifted the dial ring off the scope...set the dial ring back down in the zero position.

#2 I then shot the rifle out to the maximum yardage that I had adjustments while recording the number of clicks and/or the position of the indexing mark to the BDC ring. I could hold dead-on to 440yds and then I would use the mil-dots as hold over points.

#3 Because I hadn't finalized my load for that particular rifle, I recorded the above information and recorded it on a card.

I could have sent this information directly to Schmidt Bender and they would etched a custom ring for that particular load.

Yes, it is a fantastic deal. I've been so busy that I haven't had the chance to list it on egag.

^^^^^

Last drop at $1550 shipped/insured with a money order.

With the scope in like new condition and the price $800 below new, I'm firm at this price.

Thanks for looking
