Rifle Scopes March 5-42 Gen 2 PRS Edition – FML-WBR or FML-MT? Seeking feedback from those who've switched from tree reticles

[zenm@ster]

Hey, fellow shooters, looking for insights from those who’ve transitioned from a Christmas tree-style reticle to something more minimal. I’ve been shooting both centerfire and rimfire for 2 years, and I've done 3 PRS-style events using a tree-ish ZCO MPCT3X, Zeiss ZF-MRi, and Kahles SKMR4+. I'm now considering the March 5-42 Gen 2 PRS Edition, but I'm stuck between the FML-WBR and FML-MT reticles.

From what I gather:

• FML-WBR is a purpose-built PRS reticle by Brandon Rudge—clean, open-dot design, no top vertical stadia, .2/.5 MIL spacing.
• FML-MT is a minimalist MIL-style FFP reticle—thin lines, center dot, and seemingly better suited for precision than quick transitions.

Having only used Christmas tree reticles, the theory is that I will gain speed, clarity, and less clutter on target by switching. Would love to hear from anyone who has used both or gone tree → no-tree—especially in the 5-42 March. How does your split time, speed, or hit observation change? Do you miss the tree for fast holdovers, or does simplicity trump the Christmas tree?

Thanks for any thoughts, clips, or mental models!
