USO B10, 1.8-10. Looking at the GAP vs JNG Mil reticles. I have an SN3 3.2-17 with the GAP, and I like it a lot, and its a useful reticle. However, this optic is going on a pig gun, and I am wondering if the large outer ring would make targeting a little easier at lower magnifications. Most importantly, I have read a review or two that suggest that, at 10x, the GAP in the B10 is coarse/thick. Wondering if the JNG might have finer stadia lines and offer less obstruction of small targets. Any experience comparing the two reticles, specifically in the B10 1.8-10, or in general? Thanks.

There is some sort of a lawsuit happening with USO right now:

Oh boy, here we go. Thanks for the heads up.
I sent in a scope that USO deemed not fixable, so they offered me a replacement, and the B10 was an option. Either way I'm getting a brand new scope, just need to figure out reticle choice. Can always put it on fleabay..... |

Don't get me wrong. The company itself might be just fine long term. I simply do not know.

GAP VS JNG on BFX10GAP Would you consider the H425 reticle? when illuminated I would think it would be a superb choice. I am not much on the large illuminated circle of the JNG. My scope has the GAP and I like that. For night I do like the red post on a trijicon accupoint scope though

I looked at the Horus, but this was replacing an SR-8C which had broken. "New" USO said they can't rebuild it and offered me a replacement. Upgrading to the Horus would have cost me $300.
I wish I could have just had the SR-8C fixed instead.
Well, the B10 1.8-10 is huge, heavy, and the GAP reticle within it is THICK, when compared to the exact same reticle in my SN3 3.2-17. So thick that to call this a precision scope would be incorrect, in my opinion. Might sell it and buy an Atibal 1-10 instead. |
