OK< so basically like I said, your and NO bash here again
like most hunters they sight in scope and basically leave it be, using hold over either by the scopes hash/reticle design
which then means your never really using the scopes adjustments minus that one time sighting in
so use like this, most decent scopes will last a life time
and I agree there are many great cope reticle's out there that allow the average shooter to shoot farther now
but like all things, they should be tested to make sure there on at "X" ranges and not just shot at game to find out(as I know some do NOT saying YOU do this)
