Rifle Scopes Reticle Opinions needed!

Re: Reticle Opinions needed!

<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: 105Amatt</div><div class="ubbcode-body">So, which do you like better? Mil-Dot or TMR? I am having my reticle changed in my VX3, trying to decide on which one.

It depends on your purpose......If you going to use your reticle for ranging, or extensive use of reticle holds, then go TMR. If you only plan to do those things infrequently, but need a bold reticle for hunting, then go Mildot.
 
Re: Reticle Opinions needed!

the TMR is great. it's not as busy as you'd think. the reticle is open in the middle. it's not the best reticle for going out and shooting groups (IMHO), but it's a great reticle for shooting unknown distances.
 
Re: Reticle Opinions needed!

MilDot was a great alternative to crosshair. Today with TMR and MilHash reticles using MilDot looks as ridiculous to me as shooting muskets (some people still like to do that, I know

).
 
Re: Reticle Opinions needed!

I think the TMR is one of the best.

You can easily range and hold within .1 mil without having too much going on, obstructing too much target area, or being too spaced out/likely to go invisible with dark/busy backgrounds like some others.

What do you prefer? I'm trying to make the same decision... which Leupold recticle to go with. Will be using for mid-range F-Class and with a clip on NV devise where ranging will be important.

Of Leupolds reticles the TMR is the best thing they offer. My personal favorite is Premiers Gen II XR and the Gen II Mil-dot lands squarely in the number 2 spot on my list.
 
Re: Reticle Opinions needed!

I had the TMR on my target gun but switched to a Horus Vision with H37 which I love. But out of the two in question I would go with the TMR.
 
Re: Reticle Opinions needed!

I had a vx3 sent off to leupold and a TMR reticle change and m1 turrets. I loved it!!
Plus TMR Is so easy to figure distance..
