Dennis,
Darrel Holland puts his "weird" reticle in Leupold, Nightforce and Schmidt & Bender scopes. It's in the first focal plane so the aiming points are valid on any magnification. It costs about $350 over the basic price of the scope itself, whether a Leupold VX-3 or a Schmidt & Bender. The scopes can also be cranked up and down. I have used the weird ART reticle a lot over the past few years and consider it (and the general system) to be among the best for long-range shooting.
You might also like to know that I am in the process of testing a Leupold VX-7 2.5-10x. Haven't gotten done with all the tests but have done my night-chart optics test, and it ranks right in there with the new Leica and only a smidgen behind an S&B Summit. In fact I have to give all three scopes the same 8 rating on my chart, which is as high as any scope has tested.
