Re: Which Horus Reticle
I've been using the H58 for the past few months and have really come to like it. The 58 and 59 are very similar with a couple minor changes. Personally, I like it better than the 37 merely for the unobstructed view which is just a little busy and covers too much of the field of view for me.
Just my personal opinion, the 37 may work fine for you. You'll just have to look through one if you get the opportunity and decide for yourself.

H-59 gets my vote. I like the floating dot when I dial.
I'm a fan of Horus reticles but I like to use the "clear space" in the FOV for observing or locating. The H-37 is my least favorite for that reason.

Reticle H-27 20x
I think my answer is clear
H-37 all cal.
H-58 hot cal.

Re: Which Horus Reticle
Thanks guys for your input. my first impression is the H-59. One more variable, TREMOR thoughts? It looks similar to the DTAC, but in mil.

Re: Which Horus Reticle
I have the H59 in two Horus Vision Blackbird 2 scopes and it is a great reticle.
For long range however I prefer the TReMoR2 reticle because I don't like doing wind math on the spot and the TReMoR2 reticle takes that requirement away.
For extreme long range I would think that the H37 would be best because the zero point moves up in the scope when you dial the power up and you gain much more drop reticle than one where the zero point stays on the center plane.

Re: Which Horus Reticle
+1 for the Tremor 2. Have not used the others but the intuitivness of the Tremor is why I picked it. Wind call dot to match all calibers. Clearly I watched the Vid and bought hook line and sinker. I have no previous military so I had to study all from a newb perspective. Shot only 600 yds so far but .223 hit 8" steel .5'" off center.
