Which scope/reticle are youse guys using on your HEAVY rigs?

Thanks
 
I currently have a 2DD. No real complaints, but I wish I had gone with the CH3 reticle for the smaller dot.--Mike
 
Hey Ed,
I don't know what youse guys use up north, but I have gone to Leupold 45's that have been frozen on all of my competition rigs. What is it they say?, familiarity breeds familiarity?
Best,

I use Leupold 40's and Bausch & Lomb.
Ed, Where are you located?

Ed...looking at all of the IBS match reports (equipment list) can give you a good indication of the more popular scopes...but, I recommend you get a scope with 1/8" minute click values...the power and reticle is more of a personal choice and get the best glass you can afford...

just my 2 cents worth...:)

I love shooting score and i have found that i also like the very small dot. A 1/16" dot is what i like. I have a NF #3 very small dot and i also just got a couple scopes back from wally Siebert i had him take out the 1/8th" dot and install a 1/16" dot. I like them very much! I also like this for my group shooting rifles. Ed Pm coming your way sir, i need to ask you something. Lee
 
Thanks to all who responded.

I thought I would use NF to gain weight.

I think it will require a butt load of weight (no pun intended) to get up to HEAVY weight.

Dan ratted me out; I am a Texan.

There are far less expensive ways to add 12 ounces to anything.

Paul,

I am probably sinning.

I am contemplating turning a LV rig in to a HV rig.

It must grow 3 pounds not 12 ounces.
 
Mike,

that was my thinking; plus a little,(??) tail weight.

Thank you!!!
 
I use a 10x60 March variable with a 1/8 dot on my HV 30BR score Rig

I prefer a Dot for Score, Crosshairs for group........jackie

Just out of curiosity sir, were do you hold on the target while shooting groups with cross hairs? Lee
 
I've had a few

but currently I have a 40 Leup in Brackney mounts. I had a 45 Brackney with a Premier Dot in it but found it to be too much magnification for my taste. My 40 has crosshairs. I wanted this because I wanted to be able to bracket the aiming square on a group target in the crosshair intersection. I used that method in the one and only Group Match I have shot in and liked it. That seemed to me the most accurate place one could aim at without giving up anything to error. I don't find the crosshairs to be any more difficult to use for Score than a dot.
 
Skeet, I bracket the mothball at 12 and 3 ocklock with the crosshairs in Group. In score, I put the dot in the middle of the mothball, or hold accordingly........jackie

Wow. I though I was the only one who did that! Though if it is a really clear day, I'll bracket the thinner nine ring at 12 and 3 for group.

Except . . . For either group or score, it would take something drastic for me to change the scope setting after the warmup match. That means in a score match, I'm usually holding off a bit.
