My son brought up an interesting question concerning Scopes with MilDot reticules.
His theory is that scopes with variable zoom levels, lets say 4-9 power cannot use MilDot reticules since changing the power will distort the reticule.
He was looking for a good scope, but most were 6 to 12 power or 4 to 9, with various Reticules offered.
Since I don't really take any long shots and tend to set the scope at a mid range power and leave it there, I've never paid close attention to the reticules. I need some folks with Optical knowledge to shed some light on the subject.
Thanks
