[QUOTE="Clovis Man, post: 943770, member: 79720"] I grew up in South Texas, using Weaver scopes with the reticle with two horizontal lines. What did they call that thing??? We didn't use them as a pseudo-rangefinder, we just "knew" that the top line was for 200 yards and the bottom line was for 400 yards. We usually hit pretty good, too. Today, after having shot in the Marine Corps with open sights at 500 yards -- or meters, depending which base we were on -- I guess anything over 500 yards is a long range. But it's all subjective. Did I mis-spell "reticle"??? [/QUOTE]
