RETICLE OPTIONS:
EOTECH’s unique reticle patterns are a critical 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.
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 operator 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.
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.
