KRAIG... the 50-300 is the distance I'm shooting, not what I'm looking for in a scope...
since there is more adjustment to be made at the shorter distances, seems that since I'm shooting shorter "long distance" ranges... the parallax adjustability would be an important feature
just using the new Vortex I just bought, & the older Redfield, the Vortex has much crisper image, especially around the edges
