1. A reticle, comprising:
- a) a first horizontal cross-hair;
b) a first vertical cross-hair that intersects said first horizontal cross-hair;
c) three or more graduated length mil lines of graduated length that intersect said first horizontal cross-hair;
d) three or more graduated length mil lines of graduated length that intersect said first vertical cross-hair; and
e) two or more offset mil lines subtending a gap on said horizontal cross-hair between at least two said graduated length mil lines that intersect said first horizontal cross-hair to the user'"'"'s left of said first vertical cross-hair, two or more offset mil lines subtending a gap on said horizontal cross-hair between at least two said graduated length mil lines that intersect said first horizontal cross-hair to the user'"'"'s right of said vertical cross-hair, and two or more offset mil lines subtending a gap on said vertical cross between at least two said graduated length mil lines that intersect said first vertical cross hair above the intersection of said first horizontal cross-hair and said first vertical cross-hair, wherein said gap on said horizontal cross-hair between at least two said graduated length mil lines that intersect said first horizontal cross-hair to the user'"'"'s left of said first vertical cross-hair, said gap on said horizontal cross-hair between at least two said graduated length mil lines that intersect said first horizontal cross-hair to the user'"'"'s right of said vertical cross-hair, and said gap on said vertical cross between at least two said graduated length mil lines that intersect said first vertical cross hair above said intersection of said first horizontal cross-hair and said first vertical cross-hair are different gaps, wherein at least one of said two or more offset mil lines does not contact said first horizontal cross-hair or said first vertical cross-hair.
