[QUOTE="älg, post: 143233, member: 2995"] A 8/10 in. reticle would be VERY thick.- [ QUOTE ] crosshairs do not grow as distance increases rather the object (target) decreases in size [/ QUOTE ] It is the power factor what increases/ decreases the size as seen through the scope. What you say would be in a second focal plane reticle; reticle thickness remains the same and the target apparent size increases or decreases; in a FFP, the reticle thickness/target size ratio remains the same throughout the scope´s magnification. [ QUOTE ] 'm thinking 8/10 of inch at 100 yards grows to 8" at 1000 yards [/ QUOTE ] - in a FFP yes if you refer to the area the reticle covers on the target at those distances. [/QUOTE]
