Patent attributes
A multi-distance ranging reticle for an optical device is provided. The reticle can include a primary vertical crosshair transverse to a primary horizontal crosshair, a secondary horizontal crosshair having a first vertical marking and a second vertical marking, separated by a distance, the secondary horizontal crosshair corresponding to a first range. A first object having a first known width can be placed between the first and second vertical markings to estimate a first estimated range to the first object. An assortment of other vertical markings can be disposed along the secondary horizontal cross hair, and/or other additional horizontal crosshairs and separated by other distances corresponding to other known widths of other objects. By selectively framing an object of a known width between certain vertical markings along a particular horizontal crosshair, a user can quickly and efficiently estimate range of the object. A related method of use is provided.
