[QUOTE="sscoyote, post: 72988, member: 1133"] 1963 definitely hit it all right on the nose-- very succinctly too considering the broad range of this topic.

The whole idea of applying reticles for downrange zeroing/windage/ranging can be somewhat complicated UNTIL u begin to realize that it is simply based upon an angular measuring device (reticle stadia) that is used for measuring the 3 aforementioned systems downrange. The more u work with it the more u'll understand it, and the more u begin to understand "the system" the more u'll realize it's really an enlightenment, of sorts. [/QUOTE]
