Googling around for the one reticle or the other crosshair, something intriguing will come up, and I'll make an attempt. Such as:







The scope designation is the ZFM 6x42 Z. The reticle is from Swarovski. The scope manufacturer might actually be Swarovski, but I haven't confirmed that yet.

The image is of my second version of this reticle. The first version was for 12x magnification 'cause I misread my notes. It looked great, but I wanted this reticle optimized for 6x.

I'm not aware if the ZFM is illuminated, but I illuminated it anyway. Mr. Chung states the BDC is adjustable to 800m, but I set the max to 1000m, mostly 'cause I can.

I think I made some of the lines too thick, and the form and weight of the numbers feels suboptimal to me, but it's a decent second draft.



Edit: I redrew the '2' on the rangefinder. I made the slanted bit one pixel taller, so it feels slightly less stubby. I think this one is done.

(Also tried to optimize my .jpg quality a bit more. And since I did, I redid the first screenshot, but I failed to catch the hitmarker, and restarting the mission half an hour into it is, just, no. So I got screenshot, with a hitmarker, on a different target. The new target was also further away, so that's cool.)
