SemperCRY,
Your CLUELESS Brokedick Professional Victim Hurt Feeler Reports from THE Retard Ranch,are fhuqking HILARIOUS...you "lucky" kchunt. Hint. Congratulations?!?
Fortunately for you,Imagination,Pretend,Brokedick Professional Victim Hurt Feeler Reports,Stolen Media and Emoji's are free,so even YOU can "afford" to "contribute". Hint.
I get it,that you are the mercy of your very WELL found and countless Insecurities,but you just "happen" to be a Lying Piece Of Fhuqking Schit to boot. As you spend ALL of your time on the sidelines of "Life",fixating me,simply copy/paste or perhaps screenshot the Delusions you conjured. It WILL be funnier than fhuqk. Hint.
Just sayin'.............

Reupold's ship long ago sailed and ALL of the cheeese,has slid off of their cracker. They don't rate a stamp,nor the tape associated. Hint.
The MK4 HD and MK5 HD's fhuqking HILARIOUS mechanics,sealed the deal for me. I threw $3000 at 'em,HOPING for something,but they are AMAZINGLY fhuqking dismal. Hint.

Ordered the vaunted Athlon 2-12 mil yesterday. Itβll get ran on 2x and used like a red dot far more than itβll get cranked up to 12 to utilize the tree, but itβll be nice knowing I can if I wanna. Is it a Repeat Performance,or are you poking toes into unknown waters? Hint. I hear GOOD thangs. Hint.(grin) Just sayin'............ The Athlon 2-12 is out of stock at Cameraland. Is that temporary or is it reminiscent of SWFA?

Guessing probably 99% of all large game animals WORLDWIDE are shot within 200 yards and probably 75% of them within a 100 yards.
I don't shoot or hunt anywhere near as often as many of you, nor am going to pretend to me an expert "keyboard" or otherwise.
I've taken over a 100 deer in my life, 6 elk, 12-15 antelope, hunted in Red stag in Scotland along with a Roe Deer. Been to Africa 3x.
I've taken two deer around 600 yards, one was a fluke. I'd say 15-20 at tops animals between 200-300 yards with the vast majority of them between 75-150.
Reality is the VAST majority of hunters don't need to dial or need x-mas tree reticles.
Regarding Leupolds, maybe they don't track the best but I wonder how many old friction adjustments scopes are out there that once set (pain in the a$$ to do that sometimes) but have never once lost zero? I know I have quite a few and some of them have been on horseback hunts, been dropped, etc.

I know I have quite a few and some of them have been on horseback hunts, been dropped, etc. While I can understand and agree with your point - assuming all one does is hunt and never shoots that rifle recreationally outside of their 2-3 week deer season etc. All the shots taken at game are what % of all the shots taken at targets be it plinking, PRS, gun games etc? It's not >100% and I'd be surprised if it's >25%. The reason why scopes have the illuminated Christmas tree is because hunting is declining as the primary reason people shoot. Plinking, gun competition, games etc is increasing. "A scope I can hunt with" is a secondary concern for a lot of people. They use it to do other things and those other things, by nature of volume of rounds fired/time spent - gets the majority of priority when it comes to feature set. So the scope mfgs service the demand. If the demand was there for a #4 post and crosshair - we'd have it, a lot of it. The invisible hand of the market is influencing the makers - not the makers forcing the market to comply with some desire to make a more complicated (costly to mfg) offering.

Just sayin'............. I know it's hard for you to not make, well, everything, about you, but losing your shiit because I'm supplying actual data while you, quite obviously, rely 100% on feelings, doesn't really add much. I could own nothing other than a squirt gun and it wouldn't change the fact that the link I posted is in direct conflict with the "facts" you scream at everyone all the time.

Ordered the vaunted Athlon 2-12 mil yesterday. Itβll get ran on 2x and used like a red dot far more than itβll get cranked up to 12 to utilize the tree, but itβll be nice knowing I can if I wanna. Is it a Repeat Performance,or are you poking toes into unknown waters? Hint. I hear GOOD thangs. Hint.(grin) Just sayin'............ The Athlon 2-12 is out of stock at Cameraland. Is that temporary or is it reminiscent of SWFA? HUH? The Athlon Helos BTR GEN2 2-12x42's are in stock Thanks Doug. I went to the site picked Athlon and saw the first scope on that page in stock. Next 2 full pages out of stock. I just knew I was looking for a 2-12 and so didn't search by model. Most sites I look at have their in stock come up first and when out of stock starts appearing, there's no need to keep searching page by page, so I stopped looking after the first 3 pages.

No worries. They are revamping some of their scope lines so we are thinning out some of their series of scopes prepping for the newer ones

Well, what scopes do they use? All I see here is the same boring copy and paste insults.
How about naming these wonderful scopes.
