Anyone have any experience with this reticle? I'm looking at getting a Conquest 6.5-20x50mm target turrets with the 1000 ret.
 
Re: Zeiss Rapid Z 1000

I've got one. It has its ups and downs. GREAT glass for the money. Not much elevation travel, but it isn't designed to use it. On my old 308 shooting a 175 grain smk it was dead on at 19.5 power. Keep in mind when you spend the time to match your load to the reticle it only works at that power. At first I mounted it on a 20 MOA base and could not zero the 100 yard line in the reticle at 100.
All in all it does what its suppose to well, but you have to remember to work it out to your load and don't change the power setting.
On my 300 jarret, I only used a little over the 600 yard line on the reticle to get to 1000 yards.
