is the diet flight computer for doing the mrad calculations needed for best use of this reticle?To @1000yards (and anyone else) - there's a lot that can be learned about this reticle without even having it in hand.
I'd highly recommend reading the ZP5 eval (Minox ZP5 5-25x56mm THLR Field Eval) and Q&A threads (https://rokslide.com/forums/threads/q-a-for-minox-zp5-5-25x56mm-thlr-scope.253284/) - you'll pick up a lot.
I think I also posted here in the last week or so to work through all of @THLR's videos on the reticle - and then do it all over again.
@nm.otter, that legend, even posted a direct link to @THLR's playlist: https://rokslide.com/forums/threads...5x56mm-thlr-scope.253284/page-11#post-4404919
Once again, Rokslide is now the largest repository on the internet about the THLR reticle ... if you read the descriptions of the subtensions, the use in practice, how it works as both a 'plain' mil reticle as well as effectively has BDC elements contained (if you want that) ... you can then get a good sense looking at some of Thomas and Form's images of the reticle over targets about what means what, and how you'd use it.
Part of the genius of Thomas's reticle is that you can put it in someone's hands, who knows nothing of the design, and they'll say things like 'This is great. It's clear, and intuitive' - while only knowing part of the functionality.
But once people know what the reticle is fully capable of, it's like scales are lifted from their eyes, and the reticle becomes something else ... it's like turning on 'advanced mode' or something.
I looked into it more and it’s a trueMiller and I assume not. I imagine it’s just an intuitive way of doing the calculations
