Jlowell,

I have had experience with one Shepard scope. My neighbor was going on an elk hunt and he had one mounted on a 300 ultra. He tried to site it in using several boxes of ammo. What was happening was if you used the duplex reticle the gun would shoot under 1 moa. A couple were ½ that. When you went to the range finding part the group would open up to 3-4 moa.

I noticed if I moved my head around on the stock the ranging reticle moved big time but the duplex didn’t.
That is the only Shepard scope that has crossed my path.

hey that's funny. No wonder all the critters were really big......like the broad side of a barn. :D
