The present invention is a reticule featuring both rapid close-quarters
target acquisition and precise distance shooting functionality. The
reticule features a broad central aiming ring and four sets of aiming
point-indicating dots. The lowest set comprises dots of differing
dimensions and distances apart. Ranging rings are also provided. In an
alternate embodiment the aiming ring comprises a plurality of varying
transparent and opaque cells. The reticule can be illuminated through
known or future discovered means for low-light or night shooting. A
further alternate embodiment features a caliber specific ranging system.
