[QUOTE="SBruce, post: 469904, member: 21068"] I'm not sure why the VX7 has so little adjustment, but am assuming it's due to the speed dial feature. The 34mm tube models of the VX7 have more adjustment range, but I didn't want that extra weight on this particular gun. Weight was also one of the reasons I didn't just use a NF to begin with. I'll have to compensate for lack of adjustment on the long stuff by using the reticle for shots out to 500 or 600 yds, and then only dial a few more minutes for the futher stuff (using the bottom crosshair for aiming). Adjustment range shouldn't be of any concern for 600 and under IMO, provided the scope is basically close to center when it's mounted. I had no problems dialing for 500-700 yd prarie dogs with a 220 Swift and an old VariX III 6.5-20X40 with 1" tube. I suppose others may have had issues, but I sure didn't. [/QUOTE]
