I have several old weavers with this type reticle, and was wondering if anyone still made it? It is crackerjack for woods type hunting. I know it is not the ideal benchrest reticle, but it is unbeleivably fast for targets to 200yds
Any makers out thhere still offering this style reticle?

If you mean the old, single tapered post w/o a crosswire, I don't know of any. But I do know of a few that work very much like it did. Spent my formative years using both the Post and the Post & Crosswire reticles. You might like a German #1. Very bold. The one on my 4X Leupold covers about 8 inches at 100 yds. The widely spaced, horizontal bars tell you if you are canting and help snap your eye to the center. The Leupold Post and Duplex I like alot too. Similar, but better than the old Post & Crosswire designs. I'm sold on the heavier reticles. Went to a German 4a some time ago for night hunting. But, when I discovered how they help with fast shots, and up close, I started to change everything over to the heavier reticles. As long as you aren't doing any long range, small varmit shooting, they work well. E

Trijicon offers such in their AccuPoint scope, although it mostly is a support for the lighted triangle you use to aim. If the lights doesn't show because of conditions, the post works well.
