Default Another Scope ?

Anybody have any experience with Millett scopes. I am tying to get the most bang for the buck between the Nikon Monarch BDC, Buris Fullfield II balistic plex, and one of the local gun shops is pushing the Millett. Thanks!

The only Millet product I have is their red dot scope on 44mag. It has held up to heavy handloads. On burris I have experience with their Signature and Euro-Diamond series scope with the Ballistic Plex and they have worked really well.

I have a leupold with the B&C reticle and a Swarovski with the TDS reticle both are compensators for bullet drop. They explain how they work when you get the scope, but some bullets/loads work better than others.

In my .270 I shoot 130gr bullets
my .300 win mag 180gr bullets
my .340wby, 225 gr line up perfectly with the drop, 200 and 250 work well but not dead on, thats why i should premium 225 gr through it, at 600yds, that elk is dropping!

Figure out the drops of each crosshair, then go online and look at ballistics and figure out a few loads that are suppose to be really close to those drops.
