I know its been said before a long time ago... I never knew exactly what people were talking about. After I've put hours of time behind my
Steiner 5-25X56 military MSR I've really started to notice how I wish the reticle was a little thinner where I could hold on very small targets out at longer ranges. A 5 inch steel gong out at a long distance ends up getting covered in the cross hairs and it really aggravating.
But when I chalk it up we all know scopes are made specifically and purposely for certain things. Shooting my human silhouette target out at whatever range I have no problem with, and thats what the scope is made to shoot. If I want to target shoot that one inch circle at 500 yards I guess I just need to get a good target scope, and another rifle! Just a little vent.. But I wouldn't mind still if it was a tad thinner... It would make the scope more shootable for small small targets...
