Hello everyone, For paper punching 100-600 yds. and occasionally 1000 yds. What type of reticle are you using. I am purchasing a 8.5-25 LRT and have several options to choose from. I can always send it to Premier if need be. I have used dots, fine plexes in the past, but just now starting to go beyond 300 yds. Thanks for the help. Tim French

I have that scope, but M1 from Premier reticles, with their .00045" fine crosshair. Have used it varmint hunting with great success. Will order another soon. http://mysite.elixirlabs.com/index.php?uid=5465&page=1911

Just something to consider: Add up the cost of the LRT and the addition of the work by Premier and the shipping costs. Then consider a BR model Nightforce. In my opinion, the Nightforce is a much better scope. Having both, is where I bass my opinion. Not saying the LRT is bad scope at all, but it is my opinion a 12x42x56 Nightforce for $1100 is alot more scope. As is the 8x32x56 for a few $$$ less. Hope this helps!
