I think the NF FC DMX is a great reticle as well as the Vudu SR-4I may have asked you this before (but I’m getting old and forget). Explain to me your ideal reticle for an MPVO, I recall you saying you wouldn't want the tree going down too far, more gaps, etc…
This HTR also, depending upon how it looks in the flesh.
If I was building for anything between a 1-10 and 2-12, I would probably start with a Leupold PR-2 (for their .25 mil hashes) and open up the center gap to 2.0 mil in size and enclose it via 0.25 mil thick circle, open slightly at the bottom to see the 1 mil vertical hash. I would number every whole mil instead of every other, and integrate them by alternating the odds to be close to the vertical. I would start my numbering at 2 mil, leaving out the "1".
I would remove the 0.1 mil lines in the vertical located between 3 and 4 mil. Those would be changed to a .2 ladder and located off to the side in the lower left quadrant of the scope.
I would stop the vertical at 10 MIL and thicken below it to be the same as the horizontal lines leading into the reticle (but I would stop the horizontal at 5 mil) and I would make them all thicker with a leading point (Like Kahles SM1)
Finally I would add a ZCO "fatal funnel" located in the same general area as the .2 mil ladder. I would add EXACTLY their funnel, because it allows ranging of 6" 9" 12" and 18" width targets with hardly any thinking involved.
Then I would retire.
I am looking for a reason to try this ZCO. I have a PWS UXR on the way in 6.5CM, and I am thinking that may fit really well.
