    Rifle Scopes Bushnell Match Pro ED 3-18 & other budget scopes

    ironically, it's about as good as the 6-36 XRSIII at 1/3 the price, but that doesn't make it great. I started my budget journey with the Strike Eagle 5-25, went to a Match Pro ED 5-30 (was an improvement) but barely... then to a 5-25 Arken was an improvement, and then to a DNT The One...

    DNT is gonna let us do a reticle

    not bad , but many folks suggested keeping the top 1 or 2 mils as minimal as possible, so I left it out. (I did have them in there originally, but took them out or it starts looking too much like a GR2ID

    DNT is gonna let us do a reticle

    1 up and 1 mil wind hold on a cow. again, I don't think CGI accurately represents how a reticle looks in the field, but it's as close as we get.

    DNT is gonna let us do a reticle

    I actually thought about that, would be very easy. I was thinking about just doing the first 4 major mil marks. Do the 1 mil and the 1/2 mil dots...leave out the .2 dots and the + Give you at least enough to see where the 1 mil and half mil holds would be should be enough.

    DNT is gonna let us do a reticle

    did a v6 with some compromise for the guys that want info up top but also for the guys that don't want it "distracting" tweaked the bottom, reduced the data, reduced the size, kept the + but made it different. And with that...I think I'm gonna tap out. It was fun though, Like I said...Not pot...

    DNT is gonna let us do a reticle

    Literally never crossed my mind. I've been doing it the "regular" way my whole life. I know the first time I try it...I'm gonna fumble bad, but I'll for sure give it a try. ESPECIALLY on stages where you have to go back and forth. I'm sure others do it simialr, where we will fire a troop...

    DNT is gonna let us do a reticle

    That's interesting...I literally hold over for 75% of my rimfire matches and it's never crossed my mind to dial toward the middle and hold UNDER lol. Never even crossed my mind

    DNT is gonna let us do a reticle

    Can you explain that one for us morons lol. I dont think ive ever had to hold UNDER more than a couple tenths in a rimfire match. Maybe ours are too easy?

    Rifle Scopes Bushnell Warranty Service

    I had better luck...but barely. I had an original Bushnell SMRS 1-8.5x FFP that the reticle slipped on. Started to rotate freely. Sent it in for warranty work, and without any communication at all...I received an SMRS 1-6 2FP. I was PISSED. Basically they didn't want to fix it, and figured...

    My pref for sure, it's something from the TT Gen3XR Fine that I'd like to see.

    DNT is gonna let us do a reticle

    If that's what you're thinking...I think what you have there is probably a solid option already. I can see how that would be useful, on my 6 Creed, that looks like a 620 yd target with a 25mph full value wind could still be accomplished with pure holds. I kinda like that. The only minor down...

    DNT is gonna let us do a reticle

    Did a "reduced" tree for some of the folks that were asking. Tweaked the 1 mil + to be more like the 1 mil + that Tangent Theta uses. Left the larger + once you get beyond the 5 mil holds. Modified the heavy bar at 10 and 20 mil marks to taper in toward the middle. Tried a pointed arrow style...

    DNT is gonna let us do a reticle

    I just went back and looked at the weight of the various dots/lines on various reticles that utilize a higher mag range, as well as some form of tree reticle. This is a break down of how heavy the data is OFF the main stadia. The dots, or dashes or whatever that makes up the "tree" portion of...

    DNT is gonna let us do a reticle

    I get all that and value that info, but I don't know if the relevant info revolves around the people on the site shooting steel and target/comps. I think it's just a factor that, for me personally, I don't see this as the ideal optic for hunting anyway, so I'm not really looking to design a...

    DNT is gonna let us do a reticle

    I agree the vert and horiz stadia need to have the abilty to stand out. I pointed that out earliyer with the existing TOR reticle. Someone would have a VERY hard time telling me the TOR dots clutter up the image and they are hard to find trace or splash behind them. The only thing that...

    DNT is gonna let us do a reticle

    I think its just like choosing a camo pattern on a rifle. Imagine having virutally unlimited options of camo pattern, BUT NO WAY TO PAINT YOUR OWN... EVER! Everyone has an opinion on how they would like it to be a little different or a little better, but on a reticle, you have virtually ZERO...
