[QUOTE="Litehiker, post: 1118810, member: 54178"] A very timely article. Thanks for the info. I have a Bushnell ERS 3.5 - 21 X50 scope with an H59 "Christmas tree" reticle. What a great invention that reticle is. Holding is always faster and more accurate than dialing. Experts agree on this. Schmidt & Bender and perhaps the Nightforce BEAST are about the only scopes whose turrets I would trust to be [I]consistently repeatable[/I] at [B]all[/B] revolutions. Tests have proven those to be the best in that category. [B][I]All[/I][/B] others do drift. Some wear rapidly with repeated use, likely due to detents and gears being made of brass. That said I'll use the H59 reticle as often as I can - after zeroing and re-setting the zero mark with the turrets, of course. [/QUOTE]
