    Greetings All,
    Hold over or dial? You can actually have both as some above have suggested. Hold over scopes can be dialled as long as the adjustments are not capped. Fixed power (thanks @Micky Duck) or FFP scopes make things easier as they do not have to be set on one power for the reticle to be useful. The reticle can also be used as a rough rangefinder to tell us when the real rangefinder is needed. I think @longshot above has summed it up well although I would prefer a mil based reticle rather than MoA. Either would be preferable to a scope that pretends to show actual ranges.
    Regards Grandpamac.
