I have a 1.5-5 on my 375 and several others.  The only catch in it showing up in the scope at low powers (and changing rings doesn't help much) is a bad habit.  If you're an old peep sight shooter like me, under stress you tend to treat the view through the scope like a peep sight and try to put the front sight on your target, no matter what that big X in the middle of the scope sezz.  It will always throw the shot high, which is only handy if you're using your 375 for trap shooting or to wingshoot jumping pheasants or mallards.

It seems like a small matter, and frankly something pretty stupid.  But it happened to me several times, fortunately only when snap-shooting at steel plates at the range.  It was easy enough to overcome once I recognized the source of the problem, but you have to learn to COMPLETELY ignore that fuzzy front sight!
