I bought this a few months ago and the reticle just isn’t for me. I believe it is their A1 reticle, heavy vertical post only with 2 heavy horizontal posts. Good overall shape for an older scope with only some honest wear. Optics clear as any scope I have. I ordered the medium height Rusan rings from Optics-Trade.eu as I didn’t know it had 26mm tube when I bought it instead of 1”. $500 shipped scope and rings.

They were for weaver bases, which I believe can be used on picatinny rail too.
 
Grabbed a generic reticle photo off the internet as my attempt at taking one failed. It has this reticle:

How well do the Schmidt and Benders handle big bore recoil?

I'll take the Vortex scope cover you have listed in the Pay it Forward thread.
