Ok, this is what Leupold told me, just in case anybody else is looking for the data.
Bottom of circle is 3.9 MOA First hash below circle is 9.23 MOA Second hash below circle is 13.5 MOA Top of bottom post is 18.6 MOA Windage ticks are 11.43 MOA
Leupold builds that scope with what they call a fire dot 4 reticle. It looks like a post/cross hair model to me. (go to SWFA for a look see.) This one is not busy like some of the others. I have looked at the ones Cabela's sells and I agree. BUSY, but pretty bright. jack
The hatch marks (subtensions) are in 1-mil increments.
Per Leupold, �The Pig Plex reticle was specifically designed for the hard core hog hunter. Ballistics are matched to .30-06 180gr loads, and with a 50 yard zero provide 300, 400 and 500 yard hold over points. Windage hash marks provide fast ranging and hold off when the time comes to knock down the next pig.�
A 50-yard zero (2.25-inch scope height) using American Eagle 7.62 x 51mm, 168gr, OTM rounds yields the following:
The model I'm interested in is the 1-4x Hog with circle X reticle. (No battery)About $230 retail
The other model is a 1.25-4 firedot with battery Over $400 retail.
There's much to tell about our new VX�-1, but here's how the story ends: No other scope in its class comes even close the the quality, performance, and value of VX-1. With our revolutionary Quantum Optical System, with lead-free glass and Multicoat 4 lens coatings, the result is up to 92% total light transmission, and a sight picture that is incredibly bright, clear and razor sharp. Better have one atop your favorite rifle.
