Just when you think you’ve heard everything, he pops up with “shoot-when-it’s-in-the-scope story.įor a look at Bushnell’s complete line of scopes, visit. Whatever you choose, spend plenty of time at the range sighting in and practicing-and I know I don’t have to tell you this, but Jim Schiermiester didn’t think he would have to either-hold the crosshairs steady on the target. That can affect holdover at longer distances, but hunters can become familiar and comfortable with that effect.
With a second focal plane reticle, the reticle remains the same size but the target image will increase or decrease with magnification changes. However, at low power settings, the reticle can appear thin and, on the other side of the coin, will appear thicker at high power so it will cover more of the target, perhaps impeding precision bullet placement. Long-range target shooters often prefer the first focal plane scopes and they are winning over hunters who want to shoot at long ranges. Conversely, on a first focal plane scope, the size of the reticle will appear to change as magnification changes, appearing to grow larger as magnification increases, smaller as it decreases. With a second focal plane scope, the reticle will appear the same size regardless of the magnification setting on a variable-power scope. My Bushnell Prime scope is a second focal plane scope, the style most hunters have been familiar with for generations. We should also discuss focal planes of riflescopes, which basically is if the reticle is in the first focal plane (lens) or second focal plane. The thinner lines cover up less of the target, in this case a pronghorn, than would if they used thick lines only. The Bushnell Prime riflescope I used while hunting with Schiermiester featured Bushnell’s Multi-X Crosshair, which is of the thick-to-thin variety the thicker outer lines helping focus your attention on the thinner lines of the aiming point. Precision target shooters, for instance, may prefer finer, more precise markings (as well as fine holdover index markings) than hunters, who may prefer a distinct aiming point, with marked gradations to help indicate holdover for longer shots. And that doesn’t even cover illuminated reticles, which can be useful, especially in low-light situations.
Some incorporate dots or hashmarks to help you compensate for bullet drop and/or windy conditions. Styles range from fine crosshairs, to crosshairs with a dot or circle to draw your attention to the aiming point some have thick lines coming in from the edges, but narrowing to a fine line at the intersection. Different manufacturers have a variety of reticle styles, so it is best to look through a variety of scope brands and styles to see which you prefer and which best fits your style of shooting. The modern term for crosshairs is reticle crosshairs dating back to early riflescopes in which fine horsehair was used to create the aiming point, literally crossed hairs.īut today’s reticles go far beyond two intersecting lines. The hunter, obviously, was inexperienced at hunting and shooting or he would have understood that fundamental fact. Pointing to the intersection of the two lines, Schiermiester said, shoot when you have that on the antelope. No, Schiermiester said, drawing a circle on his dusty pickup dashboard, and bisecting it with horizontal and vertical lines to replicate crosshairs. So that is what the hunter was doing, shooting when the antelope was visible in the scope. Trying to get to the bottom of the problem, Schiermiester discovered the hunter’s friends had sighted in the rifle for him and told him to “just get the antelope in the scope and you’ll be OK.”

Outfitter Jim Schiermiester of Kaycee, Wyo., tells of a novice hunter who consistently missed shots at a series of pronghorn bucks, so many you wouldn’t believe me if I told you.
