Purchased this scope to put

Purchased this scope to put on my custom Ruger no. 1 chambered in 357 maximum. The scope dial is regulated for 150 grain bullets and I shoot 180 grain speer hot core bullets. Worst case scenario, I would have to get a new dial cut for the different bullet weight. Sighted in at 100 yards then set the dial for 200 and fired a shot at the 200 yard target and it hit center in the bullseye. I'm a happy camper, the scope does the job I wanted.

All of my optics are

All of my optics are Leupold so I knew what to expect. I purchased this one specifically for my 350 legend rifle and I matched my ammo to what was recommended, minimum 2500 fps at the muzzle. Once I sighted it in at 100 yards, I adjusted the turret to 200 yards and shot 3 rounds at 200 yards; 1" moa. The scope isn't comparable to all of my other vx 5hd but it is perfect for that rifle and round.

They did away with adjustable parallax like in the air rifle vx freedom. We have a youth shooting team that is put on via state wildlife. The distances are 50 ft and 75 ft. This can make a big difference when a set objective at 50 yard.
