Using Holdover Bars Quickly Now |

For the example in this article, I have used Nightforce’s NP-R2 reticle. Each bar subtends |

Sometime back I asked friends how they would use holdover bars to make an extremely quick determination of which holdover bar to use. It was a quiz of sorts. Since they didn’t respond with an answer, I thought I’d better go ahead and provide it here. Over the past 15 years, the industry has gone from the simple plex reticle to a reticle with bars on the vertical crosshair below the main, horizontal crosshair. Some have them above and some have them on the horizontal crosshair as well. The explosion on this theme by manufacturers has begun to make my eyes go crossed. Dots, circles, bars, upside down Christmas trees, asymptotic curves. The list goes on. |
