activeviii Posted December 17, 2016 Report Share Posted December 17, 2016 A friend uses the hd, only gripe was its 1" tube, the scope doesn't have the MOA travel of a 30mm tube, plus, so said, light transmission at dusk on the long range rabbits. i use a vortex viper hs on my shorter range 223, has caps on the dialable turrets so if im walking with the rifle i dont knock the settings, plus the lifetime guarantee adds to my liking On the long range 6.5cm i use a sightron s111. again with turret caps. as i get up into the 28-32x the edges are washing out but in truth i use around the 25x out to 1200m have a look on optic warehouse, there is always a good deal on there if your looking new. also Richard Uttings has been doing side by side comparisons on many of the major long range scopes. atb Phil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
