@SwampfoxMike I like the idea of the Blade reticle with "drop" compensation for CQB. Being retired and not a hunter, I don't see any valid engagement (other than recreation) where I'd have a justifiable shot over 200 yds (if even that).
Question just out of curiosity about the reticle though.
Why have the 5yd mark at the bottom and the 50/200 centered? For a CQB focused reticle, wouldn't it be faster to put the 5 yd in the center and have the compensation move up? If I've got a 5 yd target I think I'm going to center and shoot, whereas as the distance moves out I probably have a little more time to adjust to the right mark.
I'm not aware of all the science behind it, so apologies if this is a stupid question.
