Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunting Optics Leup. Varmint Hunter Reticle Subtensions?

Anybody know what they are in the 6.5-20x @ 20x?

The following numbers assume a 200 yd zero and come from Leupold "Ballistics Aiming System" booklet included with their scopes:
Large triangle (max power) Small triangle
300 yd X-hair 1.81 moa/5.69" 2.26 moa/7.10"
400 yd " 4.13 moa/17.30" 5.16 moa/21.61"
500 yd " 7.02 moa/36.80" 8.78 moa/46.00"
The small x-hair at the top of the bottom post is 2.33 moa below the 500 yd X-hair and is intended to be used as a range-finding device which "Brackets a standing prairie dog at 300 yds."

Also the ends of the X-hairs represent 10 mph wind correction and the dots off the ends of the X-hairs represent 20 mph correction. Hope this helps. I have a 6.5-20x40 and like it.

Oops. Sorry, the columns didn't come out like I thought but I think you can figure it out.

Thks. but wondering what they are at the optic's highest power. I think someone told me that leupold now keeps that info on hand. Have to call them i guess. Thks. though.

I'm assuming they're ~10% less (18/20). We'll see.

I have a calculator for the Varmint Hunters reticle for the Iphone(Istrelok) What what I have seen, you can use the Swarovski TDS calculator as the subtensions are the same. Make sure you are shooting with the scope at full power of course.

The first set of values listed in my post above are at the highest power setting of all Leupolds with the Varmint Hunter reticle, i.e.-300 yd X-hair is 1.81 moa/5.69" below the center, the 400 yd X-hair is 4.13 moa/17.30" below the center and the 500 is 7.02 moa/36.80" below the center.

Nav--the MOA values u list for the 6.5-20 aren't at 20x. They're at the large triangle which is right at ~18x.
