Truthfully, for something that shoots too flat for the Rapid Z, I'd recommend a turret scope with yardage indicated turrets anyhow
I found a BDC reticle that much better suits the trajectory, and I find it much quicker and easier than twisting turrets.

How is that not the proper solution when you end up with yardage indicated secondary reticles as a result?
I would rather have no numbers next to the hashmark, than have the wrong numbers. By using a 170 yard zero, I could get the RZ800 reticle to work somewhat close at 500 yards, but by 600 yards, using the 600 yard hashmark would result in the shot being inches high. By 700 yards, using the 700 yard hashmark, could lead to a clean miss on the vital zone of a deer sized animal.
