[QUOTE="985, post: 1276381"] Sorry brother, but you are wrong. Place a stick in a glass of water and watch how it bends away from the light source. The further from the surface, the greater the bend. The same principle occurs with the lenses of your scope. The further away from optical center, the greater the distortion. There aren't two sides of an argument when the science is proven. To you, this is like arguing religion. However, These are proven and accepted scientific facts. It's just like someone who uses the corriolis routine of their ballistic software; (if one is using a handheld unit) it doesn't work, Ever. This is because your handheld unit has a "fixed point processor." Fixed point processors are not capable of processing the long strings of mantissa digits. But you would probably argue that it can... Again, sorry brother. My advice to you and the others is to get off of the gucci train. Stop using something that is just, "good enough." Last week at an awards ceremony for sniper of the year, another seasoned sniper said, "that guy who brought/ instructs the hold over method with the grided reticle has ruined at least three generations of snipers." His words not mine; however I couldn't have agreed with him more. [/QUOTE]
