Al,
I'm anxious to see/hear how it turns out. Hint.
Need to warm up,throw dry duds on and start uploading pics. The Reupold MK5 was magnificent. Hint.
To be continued. Hint..............

The weather did indeed lay right the fhuqk down and conditions were rather exceptional. Hint. So I set up a TTT at 50yds,hung a plum line,traced same and marked it in 5 Mil increments to 20 Mil's. 23 Mil's is all that remained after the 50yd zero. Zero'd turrets and went to shooting TTT. Prior to the first shot and for every one there after,I ran erector up until it hit 23 Mil's,returned to zero stop,whirled zoom selector high to low and then put in the requisite correction. Obviously aiming at the same point,for every shot. Hint. Pretty fhuqking FUNNY,for a $2000 MSRP scope! Hint. To be continued. Hint..............

Makes me glad to have a scope checker to at least verify tracking and adjustments before they go on the gun.
Good shootin' -Al

I didn't buy "a Reupold",I bought "THE Reupold" and as mentioned often,I was rooting for them. Hint. Third stanza,following suit of the prior. I ran erector up until it hit 23 Mil's,returned to zero stop,whirled zoom selector high to low and then put in the requisite correction. Obviously aiming at the same point,for every shot. Hint. Here is where a 15 Mil correction/repeat,looks to be a sweet spot. It doesn't drift from center as bad and sort of Agg's. Hint To be continued. Hint................

Fourth stanza. In "fairness" the RTZ was within 50% of the platform's capabilities in the first trio. Shot #4,sank that battleship. Hint. To be continued. Hint................

Intellestingly enough,the Reupold MK5 HD 3.6-18x HD M5C3-35mm FFP PR1-Mil #180726's reticle,did in fact jive with MEASURED values,though it's erector,did not align it's very own reticle. Hint. Fifth stanza. Hint. To be continued. Hint................

Maybe it'd be good on a full choked buckshot slinger.. Man, that's too bad, I was kinda hoping it was going to hammer it out of the park.

LESS touching a turret,the scope did nice thangs. I felt like it directed the platform,largely to it's potential. Shooting staples as per whim and slipping a second projectile into a fresh made bullet hole. Touch the erector and ALL bets were off. I've ZERO fhuqking doubt,that windage intrusion,would have knocked schit off the spacious 50yd backer. Hint. The culmination of 5rds fired,as cited. Hint. Pardon reality,as the Drooling CLUELESS Lying Pieces Of Fhuqking Schit,DREAM aloud. Hint. To be continued. Hint................

It is Fascinatingly Fhuqking HILARIOUS,just how badly Reupold wishes they could say "MADE in America",but legally can't. Hint. I'd liken it akin to Imaginary Pretend Ignore. Hint. A simplistic 10 Mil correction and RTZ,was an EPIC Goat Fhuqk. Hint. To be continued. Hint................
