I don’t really do much of this but I’ve always had a rifle setup that was considered long range. But for the most part I play with it at the range and might take it hunting a time or two.

So my question is for example on the Vortex Viper PST line…what is the reasoning on having the what I consider a “complex” tactical turrets and yet have the same type of reticle? I would assume that the turrets are mostly used when you are at the range and the reticle is for hunting when you need to make quicker on the fly adjustments. But why not offer a simple hunting reticle with the tactical turrets or just the fancy reticle without the tactical turrets. I know leupold has this market covered pretty well with the CDS system but seems like it wouldn’t be a big deal for companies like Vortex to offer their PST type scopes with a simple reticle and tactical turrets or vice versa. What am I missing I’m sure it’s something the long range guys will know better than me.
