ABSTRACT:
An improved telescopic gunsight for long-range shooting is provided having a reticle, formed from an optically transparent wafer or disc having an optical center which coincides with a center of a field of vision when the reticle is mounted in a telescopic gunsight, reticle a primary vertical cross-hair having a predetermined thickness intersecting the optical center of the wafer, a primary horizontal cross-hair having a predetermined thickness intersecting the primary vertical cross-hair (some of which are marked with a unique identifying character to assist the shooter in quickly finding an aiming point), a plurality of secondary horizontal cross-hairs having predetermined thickness evenly spaced along said primary vertical cross-hair, a plurality of secondary vertical cross-hairs having predetermined thickness evenly spaced along at least some of said secondary horizontal cross-hairs; and a range-finding means positioned in one of the quadrants formed by the intersection of the primary vertical and horizontal cross-hairs and wherein the thickness of, and spacing between, the cross-hairs can be based upon an easy to learn inches of angle (or centimeters of angle) scale.
