This one might get some argument. Mostly the 5x mag., but it makes things actually six times larger on screen, and my research into ACOGs is they have 6 power magnification. So, you know...

As best as my math can say, the chevron and hashes are all 48.26cm (19") at their various ranges, and the aimpoints are consistent with the infographic attached, although my testing shows that one-headshot kills are not really happening beyond 400m, and even 400m headshots are not reliable one-hit kills. I could get 700m and 800m hits with a little care and luck, but half-magazine kills don't really seem worth the effort to include hashes for those ranges.

I added inserts of the reticle on different backgrounds to illustrate the visibility, and if you check, you can see the chevron automatically adjusts brightness with the background, more or less, and isn't really useful in NVGs.

But I tried.
