Default ATN Scope anybody got one?

Hey guys,
I bought a ATN 4-12x60 today. The scope is HUGE!!! I pulled the 4-12x40 Bushnell Banner off my .22-250 (Remington 700) and put this ATN on there... Man this seems to be a nice scope! I bore sighted it a few min ago, and im goin to go shoot tom. 100-600yds... well more like 400yds . Even borrowed a Range Finder, so we can get a exact Measurement.

But his scope is 4-12x60LU has the Bullet Drop Compensators. (.223, .308, .30-06, .270, 7mm Mag, .300 Win Mag) But im goin to use it on my .22-250. Which would yall suggest i use for the Compensators.


Thanks!
Jonathan



PS....... $700 scope for $50.... Some people dont know what they have.

I would say a .223 most likely shoots the closest to the 22-250. A 22-250 holds a flater trajectory then all mentioned above. Also depends on what shells you are using, when you start getting out to 600+ yards if you are using factory loaded ammo there is going to be a decent amount of variences from shot to shot. I would use hand loaded for acuracy out that far. What is the gun setup? Barrel style, length etc.

I love my bausch and lamb you cant beat it for the price and light gathering capability. If you really want to get technical I can dig up my load book somewhere out in the garage and see what their drop rate is, but its all kneel and void if you are hand loading. I wouldnt trust those damn scope compensators anyway, learn your gun you wont need those little lines
