发帖数: 5546 | 12 Horseshoe trumps chevron, because you can actually look through the reticle
pattern to shoot and the outer portion of the horseshoe gives you a no-crap
200m range estimation capability. W/chevron, you have to sorta guess for
200m and either remember to use the lower/inner apex (what Marines call the
crotch of the RCO, because we're disgusting) for aimpoint or remember to
hold the tip of the chevron 2-4" inches high (based upon what ammo you use
and whether or not you did a no-BS 100 METER zero like you're supposed to).
Doughnut, the lack of a specified aimpoint inside the circle makes it
possible, even likely, that groups will swim around your desired strike area
. Okay for snap shots, after a fashion, but not great for anything
resembling precision.
Scientifically, green is your best color, because it sits right smack dab in
the middle of the visible light spectrum, and is the color your eye is most
transparent to. Hold a red, green, and amber light dot up on a wall (all at
the same measurable level of intensity), the human eye will register green
as brighter even though it actually isn't. It will also pick it up faster.
Of all the colors, it is the least likely to not show up against a similar-
color background because the Trijicon one is set to 532 nanometer wavelength
, and there are few colors in nature to match it. Mostly, man creates
garbage in that tone (lasers, reticles, shitty clothes). Ooh-rah, science.
Regarding color, that's still based on bell-curve stuff. I've seen a lot of
folks do better with amber or red vs. green, but they are NOT the majority.
Those bell-curves have a left and right side to them, too. Only way to
really tell which color works best for you is to shoot with each. Same to be
said of reticle type too, though.
Bottom line, of all the Trijicon stuff we test, green horseshoe has
generally resulted in the best balance of speed and accuracy in regard to
how the shooter interacts with it. |
