Ballistic Plex Reticle or fine Plex

rhino43

I really like the Burris Fullfield 2 the question is Ballistic Plex Reticle or fine plex better for prairie dogs. I thaught the fine plex would be good for long shots because the cross hairs would not cover the prairie dogs and make it hard to see and shoot. So the question is which one would you pick, the reason I ask is that allot of you hunters been there and done that. Thanks for you time, oh by the way the one I'm looking at is the Burris Fullfield II Scope 4.5-14x42mm I was thinking this would be the way to go.

I would go for the fine lines. Or if you can get a option for one with horizontal stadia lines for calculating drops even better for long range...
Here is a link for info on long range reticles.http://www.rifleshootermag.com/shooting_tips/rs_rangeeticles_200809/index1.html#cont

I do not think they offer the fine plex in the scope you mentioned. Their website says Plex and ballistic plex for the 4.5-14X42

I have the Burris Sig select 4-16X44 with the Ballistic Plex reticle and have been very happy with it. I have not shot any prairie dogs with it, but I do shoot out to 500 yds and have not had any issues with the reticle covering my targets.

If you have a laser rangefinder, get the finest CH you can as long as the scope adjustments are working properly so you can dial in.

Otherwise get a MilDot scope and learn to use it.

Those boogers are TINY past 300 yards
