My dad has one of those on his 270. It hasn't needed a new zero in at least two decades and I've always thought it was pretty cool.
Kinda like stadia crosshairs that were the Redfield with accu-trac about 1978. The Redfield accu range was developed for the military in 1966 and was adopted by USMC for their M40 sniper rifle. Both my wide fields were the sought-after Denver Redfields. Those were both cool scopes especially the accu range.

The Low Pro wide fields were designed by a fellow who later went on to co-found Burris Optics. Redfield was bought out by Meade Telescopes who also bought Simmons and Weaver and Tasco I believe. Needless to say they kinda went south on the quality. John Redfield's company got sued out of existence by the EPA for contaminates in the Platte River the reason for the sale to Meade.
