The BTR-2 reticle in first focal plane is an excellent choice for shooters needing maximum flexibility in a riflescope. This reticle in
the first focal plane combines the close range benefits of a red dot sight with the long range capabilities offered by mrad based
ranging reticle. The center horseshoe provides an unobstructed aiming point that is effective in both CQB scenarios and if targets are
encountered at longer ranges. At high magnification (6.5x or 8.5x) the mil hash vertical stadia offers 10 mils of elevation. Additionally
the horizontal stadia can be used for windage holds or to range 10” targets out to 800 meters. (See horizontal stadia detail, right).
The reticle also features an illumination control dial with 11 brightness settings, including 2 positions for use with night vision units.
How To Use the Reticle:
1. Sight in at 100 meters/yds on any magnification setting.
2. Determine distance to target. For the best accuracy in determining distance, utilize a Bushnell Laser Rangefinder (Scout DX 1000
ARC, G Force 1300 ARC).
3. Set the scope to any magnification and determine holdovers in mils based on the ballistics of your weapon.
Illuminated Reticle Features
The BTR-2 reticle is illuminated. The “third knob” along with elevation and windage turrets is a brightness adjustment control (not a
side focus knob), numbered from 0 to 11 (Fig. 1, p.21). To increase the brightness, set the control to a higher number (opposite the
white index dot). To turn off the illumination and when storing the scope, set the dial to any of the “Off” positions (dots) between each
numbered illumination setting. To replace the battery, remove the cap on the brightness adjustment control knob using a coin, and
insert a CR2032 battery with the “+” mark facing up (Fig. 2, p.21).
