[QUOTE="Litehiker, post: 1007550, member: 54178"] I agree Mark, those mil hash marks (and dots) on a NON ballistic reticle like the H 59 to TREMOR reticle are great for windage hold hold off and the Xmas tree horizontal cross lines are needed for trajectory hold over. On a ballistic reticle they are "OK" for windage hold but usually in the wrong place for trajectory hold. Horus style reticles are not ballistic reticles but "reference reticles" to use when your calculator says "2.5 mils over, 0.8 mils R. windage". A ballistic reticle like Burris, Nikon, et al cannot be used with a ballistic calculator because they are not true mils[B] or[/B] MOA but trajectory approximations. [/QUOTE]
