lazyengineer Wrote:Can't say I really agree. 4X is too high for snap-shooting CQB, and if it's FFP the reticle is likely all but invisible turned down from 22x down to 4x. In my experience, the best general purpose scope do-all is the Primary Arms 2.5-10x GLX with Griffin reticle; as this reticle is designed to have a large visible ring at 2.5X for snap shooting CQB at close range, and 2.5x is low enough for fast acquisition. My experiments with 4X didn't go nearly as well. And at 10X, it's a long range rifle with a nice Christmas Tree Mill dot. 10X is plenty of power to shoot 1000 yards with. However, at 22oz, even that might be too heavy for some missions.
Ok, well, respectfully, I dont want you to agree!
I seriously doubt hes gonna be doing a lot of snap-shooting CQB while sheep hunting with a bolt action 6.5 Creedmoor!
Just saying
..And fwiw, they (Vortex) designed this FFP reticle in the Razor HD, so it looks just like your typical old school duplex reticle at the lower powers. Still completely functional, 100%, cranked down, at close range. And where most people wouldnt need the Christmas tree part of the reticle for holdover. YMMV. Too be fair, I have NOT
looked though a PA 2.5x10 Griffin either ..full disclosure!
While I also like the ACSS CQB reticles in general, and in fact own several iterations, and I find them the most useful on the AR platform. It would be my last choice for a bolt action sheep hunting 6.5 Creedmoor. However To each, his own!
