i zeroed mine at 30 yards but hunt with the turret dialed to 40 yards. i use it as a red dot out to 45 yards. for a precision shot at 3x the top hash mark is 20 yards, the hash below center is 50 and the second dot is 60 yards. for even more precision and if time allows just adjust the turrent and zoom.
in the past few years i have used the sig bdx, oracle x, hawke and several others i am probably forgetting. this scope is king with its low light abilities, clarity, clean reticle and versatility.
Jeff, thank you again! The scope you sold me served me very well last year! i shot a yote at 42 yards and a buck at 38 yards, both times i had zero time to be able to range or mess with buttons, dials or turrets... this scope is LEGIT!
