[QUOTE="marksman1941, post: 3054068, member: 68542"] Reticle ranging is certainly not as popular as it once was, in that sweet spot of time when range finders weren’t common place but Horus reticles and similar were in every scope out there. Back in 2011-2012 I worked at a sporting goods store, and about once a month ended up trying to explain to folks how to use a reticle for ranging a target. Assuming you can estimate the target size, it’s not hard to do. Some folks really took to it, some would stare at me blankly and then waddle over to the rangefinder counter and pick one out. I still try to practice measuring a targets with my reticle every time i shoot, as well as estimating target size, making a range estimate, then verifying with a range finder. It comes pretty quickly eventually, until you get cocky and realize how much atmospherics play into estimating target size. [/QUOTE]
