[QUOTE="Pdvdh, post: 265990, member: 4191"] Shot a caribou at 850 yds using mil-dot holdover. No problem. I tend to doubt that you're going to be able to put enough custom dots on a wire crosshair to lay them on there at 1 moa intervals. The dots alone will be awfully closely spaced and the cost of laying that many dots on a wire reticle would - I believe - just about force you into an etched-lens reticle rather than a wire reticle such as those installed on the Sightron SIII scopes. Nightforce, IOR, and other etched lens reticles - there's just about no end to what can be etched onto a glass lens. Wire cross hairs - I think there are both technical, and cost related, issues with how far you can go. You've caught my interest though. Please follow-up with where this effort ends. I'd like to know if it's techically feasible, and financially cost effective, to achieve your goal with an after-market reticle customization. [/QUOTE]
