    I have the same model but a 50mm. Its stunning. The 50mm doesn't have a range finder in it though. Doesn't matter to me though.
    Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing, and right-doing, there is a field. I will meet you there.

    Took the rifle out to the NZDA range this morning, the return to zero is originally set to about 4" above 100m by my BIL, I've now reset it to 1.5" above 100m.

    Pretty happy with where it's at given most of the deer I see are within 25 -75m. First pic is a group at 100m. I then moved to 50m to see where they were hitting (2nd pic).
    I ran out of time to check it out at 200m but I can do that down the river when we're back on the West Coast.

    Now with the RTZ at a hundy I can check it at 2-250m and maybe try some dialing up to 300, just to get a better handle on the scope and pair it with my range finder binos.
