HORUS VISION H59 RETICLE
The H59 reticle is a “field-tuned” version of the H58 reticle from Horus Vision. The horizontal grid is widened by one mil for increased
wind holdover. Additionally, the center cross has been turned into a “broken cross” so groupings are less obscured and more easily
seen. The H59 reticle is free of the clutter of more complex reticles, while still providing more windage and elevation hold capability
than any optic in its class.
The clean design includes wind hold dots that extend beyond the grid. In addition to HorusVision’s standard gridded, mil-based reticle,
the HDMR’s H59 reticle incorporates the Accuracy 1st Speed Shooting Formula to provide rapid moving target holds, as well as a system
for engaging distant targets quickly without knowing specific ranges.
CALCULATING HOLDS FOR ELEVATION
The H59’s moving target lead lines incorporate the Accuracy 1st Speed Shooting Formula to help you rapidly determine an elevation hold
your target without using the traditional mil relation formula for range-finding. The steps for determining an expedient hold are as
follows:
1. Locate a 12” portion of a target.
2. Find the line above the horizontal stadia that best brackets the 12” target between the moving target lead line and the
horizontal stadia.
3. Note the number corresponding to the lead line in step 2; divide that line value in half. For example, if the 12” target fits between
the 4 mph lead line and the horizontal stadia line, divide that in half to get a value of 2.
4. Place the 2 mil elevation hold (usually expressed as “2 mils high” or “+2 mils”) on target and fire.
