Some are simple and some are complex. What qualifies as “well-designed” will be different for everyone depending on their needs and level of skill.
What’s funny is that some here will point to a reticle and say it’s “well-designed” and have absolutely zero clue as to the accuracy of the subtensions They just take the manufacturer’s word that a MIL is a MIL or an MOA is an MOA whether it be first or second plane and they have no way to confirm it.
For a second focal plane reticle, are the subtensions accurate on max power or something close? At what power are the subtensions double their value?
There are scopes with reticles that the subtensions are completely meaningless. It’s like producing a tape measure where all of the marks are meaningless; the 1/8” lines aren’t 1/8”s, the 1” lines aren’t actually 1” and so on.
If you don’t realize how important that is when holding over for drop or off for wind while trying to put an impact on a small target at range, think about it.
That sums up Reupold succinctly. Hint..................
