Reticle Options
EOTECH’s unique reticle patterns are a criti- cal to delivering fast target acquisition and MOA accuracy at any range. EOTECH reticles feature a 68 MOA ring surrounding a 1 MOA center dot allowing the shooter to quickly pick up and lock on a target.
EOTECH One Dot Reticle
Our most popular reticle offered, the 68 MOA ring with 1 MOA dot provides three usable aiming points. The aiming points above are based on the following load: .223 cal. 62 gr. 2,900 vel. When using other loads and calibers, the opera- tor will have to establish the ranges associated with the aiming points. When using a shotgun, the 68 MOA ring can be used to represent shot patterns but will vary based on choke and shell selection. For ordering this reticle, the model codes will end in -0.
EOTECH Two Dot Reticle
Our two-dot reticle pattern can be easily distin- guished with or without magnification and offers the benefit of an additional long-range, aiming dot. The aiming points above are based on the following load: .223 cal. 62 gr. 2,900 vel. For or- dering this reticle, the model codes will end in -2.
Range Estimation with Unmagnified HWS
The standard ring found in most reticles equates to approximately 68" (5'8") at 100 yards.
Brightness Options
The 518™ HWS offers multiple brightness settings offering quick adjustability to accommodate any shooting situation.
