This is the only thing holding me back on these scopes. I've shot them with both h59 and t3,and hated them both. Scopes are really nice, but hate the reticles.
Is there much of price difference with the H59 ? If yes, is it worth it? It seems to be a choice between open or center crosshair.
T3 and H59 are typically the same price (both are horus licensed reticles), but CCH is slightly less.
Jon Pynch says he's been working on a new reticle with Leupold that should drop this year hopefully.
I use my mk 6's on semi's, same power, and for me they are perfect for that platform. Have one T3 reticle, which is nice, but better suited in a higher magnification optic. Just my preference due to thinner lines.
H58/59, is my preference on a semi with this optic model, much easier to see the reticle using hold overs. I looked through a CCH model, but that has been over a year ago. Liked the reticle, but I cannot give a honest opion on it.

OK, I thought the H59 "vig" was less than the Tremor.
they sell an illuminated T3 model that is bucks up.
i was lookingat the illum T3, but im not paying over $2k for the optic.
Check out libertyoptics. I bought my H59 from them. I think you’ll be happy with the price.
I’ve heard about this reticle, would love to see a picture of it.
I am no expert, and should stop there.
But, I run the CCH, and like it. Rather than constantly jumping around on gear, I just stuck with it and made it mine. Its on every rifle, and I learned it.
Reticles are kinda close, minimal tweaks, really. Pick one and just run it till you know it like the back of your hand.

If you can wait, word on the street is the new reticle is usable. If not go with a Burris xtr III with the scr2 reticle. I have owned and used both scopes. I like the mark 5 turrets and feel more, glass is about a wash, and the Burris reticle is way better than any of the current Leupold reticles. I dumped my H59 and went to the scr2. You can actually see through the tree.
i guess i may need to wait? i like the NF XT reticle, but its outta my budget.
i'm curious too, but i expect it to be prs focused, so it may not be a "tactical" type reticle like the H59/T3. it may be more like the SCR.
He said he's been using it the last match or two. All Leupold needs is a solid tree reticle and it's a solid package.
any pic of the reticle? dont wanna buy anything else until news breaks.
Nobody knows anything other then the 2 guys testing it.
It will def be PRS focused. I am expecting it to be along the lines of the Vortex EBR/Khales SKMR with a pretty open top 1/2 of the reticle. Just going off what JP has said.
lets go Leupold....i need to make an optics choice soon!
