This looks pretty sweet!
But, I am surprised that Leupold would decide to Release it on their Redfield line first.
As always though, I am a bit skeptical about these reticals. I mean, I like the fact it has a range finder. I bet that its accurate enough. But the hold over points can vary so much by each rifles ballistics. For hunting applications, there is some room for error. But not a TON of room.
Thoughts?

Take some practice and getting used to but it looks pretty functional to me. Now I carry a rangefinder and have a cheat sheet on the side of my rifle for out to 1144. The furthest I've shot is 650 but not at game. Did take a mule deer at 600 last year; double lung, didn't go 10'.

not as interesting as the fact that they have an AO model now.

I have this scope and absoulutly love it. Driving home with a buddy and about 2 in the morning and a coyote runs in front of the truck. So I jump out and grab my gun and call. My buddy grabs his mag light and I finally get him in my scope. The light is barely doing anything but the scope Did amazing with letting light in. I ranged him at 250 yards shot and dropped him. Didn't get one step. Grabbed my range finder and it said 260 which :bash: is pretty damn close. I love this scope.
