    Hey guys. I've been seeing a version of the Gen II Razor with the EBR-7F reticle in it. Honestly, if this thing was out when I bought my NX8, the Vortex may be what I would have gone with instead.

    Anyway, has anyone used this reticle. My intention would be to run it on my 12.5, 5.56 rig shooting 62s and 77s. Does anyone happen to have any experience with a similar setup? Does the BDC come close enough to lining up that I can fudge it with zero distance?
     
    I would think that would be an awful stretch but I think the only way you get a useful answer is if you plug your data into a ballistic calculator and compare it with the bdc subtensions
    Well, I already did that. Although it admittedly involved a bit of extrapolation with the velocities, what I came up with tells me that the BDC in that model of Razor will be useless to me.

    I was just hoping that maybe someone out there came up with something workable. Oh, well. I guess I just saved myself $1600 and the NX8 gets to carry on.
