The only improvement on the mil quad I would like is a thick bottom post at around 6 mil mark, and if I was the reticle fairy the floating dot from the moa quad but I know that’s just personal preference

My current favorite ffp mil reticle is s&b
Even w/out illumination it works great

It's hard to tell from the photo but looks like it may possibly have the floating center dot, and also .2mil hashes?

Tree=puke. Agree that a thick bottom post would be desirable.

Zero Stop!?

Is that new because the 3-9 and 3-15 I had didnt have a zero stop.
I don’t think anything has had a zero stop, so it must be new.

Reticle seems fine, same mil quad with extra tree but the tree seems to be far less bold than the vintage cross reticle part. I don’t mind it. Toss in an illuminated center dot and I’ll be very happy

Looks like they are upgrading to 10 year old designs and ditching their 20 year old ones.
I hope they will finally have something great. They already nailed pretty good.
Hopefully the upgrades are actually upgrades though. Zero stop is definitely one. Tree reticle not so much.

Mainly worried about whether or not they continue to hold zero and track reliably depending on what internal changes are made

I hope the price point doesn’t increase drastically. Be nice to see a zero stop offered and the optics stay affordable.

Moa quad is floating dot
Mil quad is a crosshair
At least in the 6 and 3-9, unsure about the fixed 10 or 5-20.

Wouldn’t that be neat.
This forum will buy up all the first releases no doubt so we’ll find out quickly if they S.T.B

Yep, correct for the current reticles. I was talking about the "new" reticle, but alas it could indeed be an moa version... I don't have the article.

I didn’t even think to look, my bad

Looks like they widened the horizontal mil scale from 6 to 7 in the pictured reticle also … almost a 40mph wind hold with a 22cm at 1,000.

Give me the exact same scope and mil quad reticle as the current fixed 6; but a fixed 8x50. I’ll order 4 right now. Thanks.
