SHORT STORY: this scope helped me achieve a 1/3 MOA group @ 200yds in 84 seconds starting with a HOT barrel. See below for details.THE SCOPE: provides an amazing view at 200yds. A super-tight FOV provides the "tunnel vision" you'll need when concentrating on long shots. It will truly test the limits of your rifle, your ammo, and the Coriolis effect.
PROS: viewing different types of targets, each 1/2" center dot appeared relatively crisp at 200yds. (I discount the wave effect from heat & humidity.) I can easily read some target verbage at 100yds and I can almost (repeat: "almost") read it at 200yds. In good sunlight, I actually saw the white circles on a black splatter target at 200yds, and I spotted each .308 hole on a non-splatter dayglo green target.
CONS: scope discipline is essential due to its unforgiving eye relief for such powerful magnification. I can't recommend it for "hunting" in the traditional sense -- but it'll do wonders if you enjoy those "long-range game assassination" videos on YouTube. I fully believe you can take a rockchuck beyond 600yds with the right rifle & ammo. Please please PLEASE sit with a spotter due to the extreme tunnel vision you'll experience.
LONG STORY: 3 rounds in 84 seconds, 0.319 MOA horizontal, 0.414 MOA vertical, starting with a HOT barrel. I placed pre-group shot #29 (since cleaning) from a warm barrel onto a practice target, followed immediately by #30 to further heat the barrel. I then loaded #31-33 into the magazine to see if cycling mars accuracy. The barrel rested for ~3min before I sent #31; shot #33 came 84 seconds later. Bore temp impacted the zero ... yet I still obtained 1/3 MOA for a mag-fed group @ 200yds.
SPECS: Model 70 Winchester .308 Featherweight, lapped w/ David Tubb FF-TMS, Leupold 45x Competition scope, Federal GM308M match ammo, Caldwell Lead Sled DFT +50lbs, from a cement table, in 84sec, starting w/ a heated barrel, measured 200yds & roughly level, Sumter SC police range, sunny 70F w/ a steady light wind.
