I recently paged through a catalog from Shepherd scopes. There are 5 models all with rangefinding reticles available in yards and meters with wind drift reference marks. It seems like a quality piece with good reviews, but has anyone had hands on experience with their product? I'm familiar with the mil-dot reticle and will probably stay with it. But this seems like a fast, accurate set up for hunters that may need long distance reference marks quickly for long extended shots. www.shepherdscopes.com

So why the thumbs down?

trailer, don't know where that came from. Probably the same place the misspelling of Shepherd in the post.[:-]
