Re: FFP ranging reticle with static-size cross-hair? Any interest?

Just as a rough guess I'm going to throw out 15 MOA as where I would tike the SFP to stop on high power which if I guestimate correctly would still allow you to see all 30MOA on low power. </span></div></div> <div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Quote:</div><div class="ubbcode-body">Originally posted by Rafael:

Let me see if I understand you.
Are you suggesting an SFP reticle of just a simple x-hair floating in the center...starting at the center and running about 7.5 MOA above, below, left, and right of center. (A plus sign in the center). Allow it to become the POA as your current reticle shrinks at the lowest powers yet become covered by the FFP reticle as the power goes up? </span></div></div>It sounds like 15 in all directions, for a total of 30 to me.
As for cost, doesn't USO have a simple duplex type reticle or other hunting/target type reticles? They may be sufficient for your SFP reticle. Dimensions and math required of course. That combined with the thin MDMOA might be the ticket. In fact, I can't imagine them not having a simple crosshair or two.
And if the money absolutely had to be spent on a new reticle mask, wouldn't you want to spend it on a new improved ranging reticle, vs a simple crosshair?
I was wondering... Wouldn't the 1 moa ticks be desirable at low power on the windage for wind correction for close targets?
