INTRODUCTION Steiner is one of the largest manufacturers of high-quality optics in the world. Steiner riflescopes are German engineered and made for hunters and precision shooters who demand the best. These scopes are optically and mechanically superior to scopes that cost thousands more. We offer a variety of reticle designs for both hunting and precision shooting. This guide explains the reticles that we offer,, how to best use them offer them for more more precise aiming, aiming, and and how to adjust for holdover at long distances and hold-off for wind.
STEINER PLEX S1 / S7 RETICLES
Plex S1 Reticle
1
The Steiner Plex S1/S7 reticles provide a simple, uncluttered and easy-to-use solution for determining holdover and wind drift. For calculating wind drift, the Plex S1 reticle has a series of small cascading dots placed to the left and right of the reticle. These dots represent the effect of a 10 mph crosswind for most big game hunting cartridges. For a 5 mph crosswind, simply hold into the wind half the distance to the dot. If the crosswind is 20 mph, simply hold into the wind twice the distance from the center post to the dot. The S7 reticle is calibrated specifically for the .22-250 caliber, but it is easily adapted to most cartridges. The Steiner Plex S7 reticle features a series of lines that are calibrated for 5 and 10 mph crosswinds. If the crosswind is 5 mph, use the inside edge of the line. For a 10 mph crosswind, the outside edge will accommodate the wind drift.
Plex S7 Reticle
If you know the distance to your target and the speed of the wind, you can quickly determine the correct aiming point to compensate for both bullet drop and drift. The Steiner Plex S1/S7 reticles are much more accurate than guessing holdover or hold-off. They can also be faster and more reassuring to most shooters than using target-type adjustments.
2
The nature of ballistics is such that everything is theoretical and if any one of the variables changes (altitude, temperature, barometric pressure, humidity, bullet design, barrel length, chamber fit, seating depth, etc.) so does the ballistic table. For maximum accuracy, practice at long ranges under similar conditions to those you will experience in the field. For maximum accuracy at long ranges, instead of sighting in at 100 yards using the center of the reticle, sight in at a longer range such as 400 yards using the 400-yard ballistic line. This will decrease the amount of long-range error that can occur under various environmental conditions, or when slightly under-estimating point-of-impact at shorter ranges.
STEINER 4A / 4A i RETICLE The 4A and 4A-I reticles have three posts and a center dot for quick, uncluttered target acquisition. On the 4A-I the center dot is illuminated for use in low light. This reticle is very popular in Europe where much of the big game hunting is done at night and in very low light. The standard 4A is well suited for big game hunting and varmint shooting.

RAPID DOT 5.56 / 7.62 RETICLE The Rapid Dot Reticle was designed for tactical riflescopes and works extremely well in close combat situations where fast target acquisition is critical. Paired with a true 1x magnification optic, it can be shot at low magnification with both eyes open for situational awareness. Stadia lines below the center crosshair are calibrated for specific calibers so that the shooter can engage targets accurately out to 700 meters. This reticle is ideal for AR/M4 platforms and is perfect for 3-Gun competitions.

3TR ™ P 3TR ™ RETICLE The 3TR and P3TR reticles were designed for tactical riflescopes and COB situations. Both offer a true 1x magnification and daylight viewable illumination with 11 magnification levels: 7 night/4 day. Each reticle has stadia lines below the crosshair so that the shooter can engage targets accurately out to 700 meters. The 3TR is available in two configurations for either 5.56 or 7.63 caliber ammo. On the P3TR the subtentions have been averaged so that it works well with either 5.56 and 7.62 caliber ammo.

G2B MIL - DOT RETICLE This reticle is a popular choice for precision shooters who engage targets at long distances. It is a mil-based reticle with ballistic hash marks between mil dots for more precise aiming, for determining distance to targets and for determining holdover and hold-off for wind. The center section of the reticle is illuminated with 11 levels of light intensity making the reticle easier to view during daylight and nighttime operations. The lowest levels can also be used with night vision devices.

MSR RETICLE The Multi-Purpose Sniper Reticle is a mil-based reticle that was initially designed for snipers but has become very popular with precision, long-range shooters. The reticle is divided into three parts that include the main reticle, a fine milling scale in the lower left quadrant, and a rapid ranging scale in the lower right quadrant. Located on the first focal plane, it also features an illuminated center crosshair. The vertical and horizontal hairline offers a continuous 1mil scale with 1/2-mil division marks for precise aiming.

SCR RETICLE Steiner’s Special Competition Reticle (SCR) is a proprietary reticle designed by Steiner for precision competition use. An extended illumination area lets the shooter engage targets at long distance even in low light. The vertical crosshair features 1/2-mil marks for distance holdover. The horizontal crosshair offers 1/2-mil and 2/10-mil lines for windage hold-off. ™
For precise distance ranging, the reticle offers 1/10-mil ranging brackets at the top, left and right extremes of the crosshair.

HORUS H59 RETICLE Licensed from Horus Vision, the H59™ reticle is a "field-tuned" version of the H58 that is designed for speed shooting out to 600 meters. The Horus Grid lets you visually place the target on the appropriate horizontal and vertical grid lines to correct for elevation and windage visually without turning knobs or counting clicks. The H59 reticle is also illuminated for use in twilight and low light conditions.

Horus TReMoR2™ The TReMoR2™ reticle is all about faster shooting. It's fieldproven to make wind calls easier. The open field of view above center reticle allows clear observation and spotting. The very fine reticle design aids in precise aiming at high power and distant ranges. Refined “chevron” mil markers subtend to 0.1 mils and versatile marker groupings occur throughout the reticle making it easier to measure targets. Drop line numbers 1-9 serve as 4-mph Moving Target Holds.

Horus TReMoR3™ The TReMoR3™ reticle is similar to the TReMoR2™ with a mil grid that can be used for windage and elevation. What sets the T3 apart are wind holds that are built-into the reticle grid. The Wind Dots give the shooter the ability to visually quantify the wind’s effect on the bullet. They are located on the bottom half of each horizontal mil stadia. Wind dots are caliber specific and can be calibrated using a Kestrel with Horus ATrag software.
