A reticle for a projectile weapon aiming device, such as a riflescope,
includes a primary horizontal sight line that intersects a primary
vertical sight line to define a primary aiming point. A circle is
centered on the primary aiming point to intersect the primary horizontal
and vertical sight lines. Multiple aiming marks are preferably spaced
apart along the primary horizontal and vertical sight lines and cooperate
with the circle and the sight lines to form horizontal and vertical
scales for estimating a range to a target having features of known or
estimable size. The scales also facilitate windage and holdover aiming
adjustments. The circle may facilitate quick target acquisition in rapid
fire engagements, as well as enhance range estimation capabilities.
