I saw in a few threads some folks asking about real life pics looking through the S&B P4F reticle so I thought I'd see if I could pull it off. This is a new S&B PM II 5X25 courtesy of Mike at CS Tactical.
1st pic is at 25X. I put the scope at a disadvantage by aiming into a low light area of the bushes. It's extremely visible and not too thin at all. As good as the pics turned out it does look way better in person. This pics at 10X and 5x particularly are hard to grasp in a photo and were difficult to get a clear focus on the reticle.
This is at 10X...
5X...
I have to say that I like this reticle. At 5X you can use the thick section of the reticle to frame your target which should work very well at close range. It's very close to the USO MIL-GAP which I love...only thinner.
