Default RE: Scope ?

ORIGINAL: HEAD0001

I have bought a couple of the new scopes from Leupold with the new reticles. I especially like the new B&C Varmint Hunting reticle. As far as adjustment is concerned I have ran out of vertical adjustment twice. Once with a Burris Signature Select scope, and once with a Leupold 6.5 X 20. The Burris was on a 12FVSS-300 WSM long distance rifle I set up for deer. I had to go to the Burris rings with the elevation inserts. Check the charts on adjustments. The Burris scopes do not have as much. The Leupold was on a 6mm varmint rig, I ran out there also. I shimmed those rings. So yes, more adjustment can be necessary. Tom.
Did I say more adjustment couldn't be necessary? You said yourself that theses setups were on long distance rifles. So that isn't "Joe average hunter" is it?

Is that hard to understand or something?
