Anybody here have any? Use them?

I'm thinking of trading my Loupold on my Sako for a Horus. I'm trying to get more into the long range shooting sport, and my loupold has to heavy of plex in it. I geuss I could just have the loupold rerediculed with a mil dot.

What do you think?

I don't have one & haven't heard anything about them either.  Which makes me think you'd be far better off to have Leupold do a reticle switch.

Thanks guys. I have shot the Nightforce scopes and like them. The US Optics look nice too. But The reason I'm looking at the Horus is that I like the fast target system of redical. No adjustments knobs! Grid it and squeeze!

That would be friggen AWSOME thats what I wanted to do in the first place. My Sako 995 came with a 2.5-16 Loupold on it I like it but dad had bought it for his old eyes. So it is heavy plex. I will contact Loupold right away! Thanks Jay!!!

No reply from Leupold as of yet, but the custimer service lady at Horus told me they have plans in the works to let leupold install thier redicals, but paper work is not done yet. At this time Horus is not retro fitting others scopes, but there is talk of doing so with Leupold scopes in the future.

Heard from Leupold the other day. They are working with the redical system, but it is not ready yet. Not sure if they are going to use Horus sights or develope thier own. Reply did not say, but they are working on it.
