In the new movie, The Killer, on Netflix the hitman uses an a scope I couldn't identify but did clearly show a picture of the reticle. I am curious if anyone knows the reticle and correspondingly the scope model? It is similar to Nightforce's Moar-T but not exactly.

Yeah, I am starting to think like DBD that it is a made-up reticle.
The only two times I recall seeing a real reticle is in Jack Reacher where theres a Mildot reticle, and The Shooter (Movie and Series) where there are a variety of Leupold scopes with real reticles (mildot, TMR, Tremor 2).
I think I recall seeing a Schmidt P4f in a movie but don't recall which.

99% of the time reticles are made up, and usually they think up something that looks ridiculous and makes no sense.
This one doesn't do too bad of a job, it looks ok on the surface but is fairly nonsensical for actual use.

I'm not a big movie person so there could be lots that do it right.
 
In Rambo they used the correct Gen II Mildot that went with the S&B 3-12 that was on the Barrett. The movie Jarhead did a good job of showing the football mildots in a Unertl too. It seems like TV shows and movies are doing a better job at showing stuff more true to life but who can forget this reticle haha?
