Just wondering if anyone out there has experience with the older style tactical scopes from IOR with the 1/8mil reticle adjustments?  Looking to see how much elevation the 6x42 has....the turret is marked up to the numeral '5' with about 20 clicks to get there.  My calculations say that's about 2.5-3.0 milliradians or about 54" at 500 yards. 

So then, does that necessarily mean that this scope is only "useful" to 500 yds max?

Scope has the dragunov reticle.

I do not have that exact scope, but I recall IOR's old 6x42 having quite a bit more adjustment range than that.  What you re talking about is the adjustment for each turn of the knob.

However, the knob can go through multiple turns, so the total adjustment is quite a bit bigger.
