Rifle Scopes Leupold TMR Reticial

[Raven 6]

Could someone explain how this reticial works? And if you had a choice, would you pick the TMR or the Mil-Dot Recticial, and why? Thanks, getting ready to order a scope for my new .300 WM and looking at my options.

Mildot seems a bit faster, TMR definitely more precise!

Here try this:

Leupold Mildot/TMR PDF

32 pages of reading. Short version is they are both Mil based reticles. A Mil is 3.6" @ 100 yds. The TMR uses hashes instead of dots, and has 1/2 (1.8" @100 yds) mil marks.

That should keep you busy....

I had my Gen2 changed to TMR because it is more precise when ranging targets.

Re: Leupold TMR Reticial

Agreed, alot of the newschool reticles look cool on paper but applying them to a tactical environment can be difficult if not ridiculous if you dont have enough time to take the shot.

My vote for best reticle is the Improved Mil dot by NF.

Re: Leupold TMR Reticial

Thanks BobinNC. It will give me something to read. Looks like I might go with the TMR, but I think I'll wait untill Leupold does the .1 mil conversion in mid January.

I also like it for it's increased rangefinding accuracy--.2 mil stadia lines allows for ~.02 mil interpolative accuracy...sometimes.

I have the MK4 8.5-25 in TMR, and haven't looked back

Re: Leupold TMR Reticial

TMR is my next purchase, swapping out the Mark 2 3-9x40 w/MilDot for a Mark4 3.5-10x40 w/TMR for my SPS-T. Going to put the Mark 2 in a detachhable mount and use between my 6.8 and wife's 5.56 ARs.

Re: Leupold TMR Reticial

I would go TMR from 4.5-14 or higher mag range.

Mil-Dot 4.5-14 and lower.

The TMR is too thin in the 3.5-10 and the 3-9's.

Re: Leupold TMR Reticial

I have two rifles, one with a Leupold TMR and the other a Nightforce MLR. I like them both and they are easy to range targets with. I don't need a rangefinder with these.

i couldnt get used to the open center design, hence canadian mil scale on my USO build sheet...
