Guys,
Anyone shooting one of these scopes? How are they at 200, 300, 400 out to 1000?
Would just like some reviews and/or opinions.

I got one with the moa reticle and I like it. Looks similar to the NF NPR-1 reticle. It is fine and should work very well at long ranges.

I havent had a chance to really field test the reticle yet though due to work, bad weather, and surgery, but I have had a coule other 8-32 SIII's with dot reticles and they are just awesome. Very, very clear, bright, and track 100%.

I am really considering selling my NF BR and getting another SIII MOA.

I have an older 6x24x42 that I love, but am building a 6.5 x284 and am considering the 8x32 MOA. The dot on the MOA is 1/4 and the 6x24 I have 1/8. I'm concerned the center dot may be too big but I can't lay my hands on one for a look. I do like the reticle though....
Decisions !! ???

To put it in perspective 1/4moa is equal to the bottom of a 16 ounce plastic throw away cup at 1000 yards. So you put the dot on the little pdogs head and when it hides behind it at 1000 yards pull the trigger. 1.4 seconds later if all is right in the world SPLAT.

1/4 MOA "Indexed at 24x" At 32x it would be much smaller.
