Rifle Scopes H59 quick question

[mattwaage1]

Ok, Looked all around the horus site, bushnell instruction manual, here, etc...

What are the lines with the numbers 2-4-6-8-10 above the main horizontal line in the H59 reticle for and what do they subtend?

in the link here: http://www.horusvision.com/img/h59falcon.swf

It looks like they are meant to subtend a person from the waist to top of head at 1-2-4-6-8-1000 yards?

Cant find any literature on this though.

Thanks
-Matt

The H58 also incorporates the Accuracy 1[SUP]st[/SUP] Speed Shooting Formula. This is the staircase looking pattern in the upper half of the reticle. This allows the shooter to quickly establish a hold for his rifle. These increments are in 1/10 mil and start at .5 from the outside and go up to 1 mil at the middle line.

The mover numbers under each speed mil mark can be used to associate which mil to hold.
