I downloaded the Strelock app for my iphone last night but I haven't played with it yet. I'm very interested in seeing what the difference in zero for the hash marks are at max magnification. I also want to see how my Burris Fullfield II fairs. It'll determine whether I'll keep it or replace it with another Zeiss Conquest.
If you do decide to get into some long range shooting, you could play with your load and bullet choice a bit and increase the optimum magnification or perhaps go to a higher magnification scope.
