gun, While I do some freelance work for Nikon, I have been using the 1-4 Point Blank Reticle since it first came out,before my opinion would be considered bias. If you are shooting inside of 200 yards this scope will do all you want it too. Zero at 100 yards and you are still in the kill zone at 200.Built for quick target acquistion and accurate shot placement. If you are just now interested in this scope, you might also be interested in knowing that it is part of the Mount 'Em Up Promotion going on right now. Buy a M-223,P-223 or P-22 Scope and get a FREE AR Mount. Pretty great deal. We did this Promo last year for the first time and literally sold out of everything! Hopefully this year we are better prepared.
Here's a pic of my M-223 1-4 on my DPMS Padus rifle. Big fun!
