    Guess Im just used to the finer #4 reticle style on my other scopes. Pity the HD5 didnt have that option.

    I think you might be surprised how thin the Zplex is on the HD5 set up, I've googled some #4 images and I can't tell the difference.

    Centre fine cross on my HD5 was heavier than my 4.5-14 Conquest #4. Much prefer a larger centre section before transition to outer heavy bars, but thats just my taste. HD5 was otherwise a really nice scope, esp the target turrets

    I got one on my .223 barrel.
    Very happy with it. Really like the reticle.

    Just got back from zeroing it after having my barrel cut from 23" down to 17" only lost 175 fps with my main load.
    30fps per inch.
