Reticles play important role in measuring the distance of your target precisely. However, all scopes are not similar and the needs of shooters vary in accordance with shooting type. Precisely locating the target and putting the bullet in it for a tactical shooter or sniper is quite different from a hunter or CQB shooter. That’s why different types of shooters look for different kinds of reticles, no matter which Schmidt and Bender rifle scope you are using.

If you are a dummy and don’t know what a reticle is, here’s a brief definition in the simplest words possible:

It is a net of fine lines (computer-generated image) on vertical and horizontal axis, generally superimposed on eyepiece, so that you can locate the precise spot (after zeroing in) on the target where you want to put the bullet in. Reticles are of different types and they vary because of the needs of different shooting needs. Simply put, reticle need of a short range hunter will vary from a long range one.

Now, let’s see the different kinds of reticle options available to shooters who are going to buy Schmidt and Bender PMII series riflescopes. In this article, we will discuss about the reticle choices you have for PMII 3-27×56 and PMII 5-25×56.
