RE: scope opinion
I would go with #2 on the RR Varminter. The BP Reticle should work great. On my RR Varminter I have the Leupold Varmint Hunter reticle(which is close to the BP). My crosshair is dead on at 200 yards. The first sub tension is 2 inches high at 300, and the second subtension is 2 inches high at 400 yards. This works great in the ground hog field. No hold over or knob adjustment necessary-just know your distance and pull the trigger. This makes it great for double taps. I set my scope on 16X for these adjustments. Tom.
