1. A reticule comprising:
- a. a central aiming ring of significant thickness, said ring defining a center and further comprising;
i. a plurality of transparent cells and ii. a plurality of opaque cells; and
b. an incomplete perimeter on a bottom side of the ring; and
c. at least one set of guide dots, with at least one set of guide dots originating in the center of the aiming ring with a central aiming dot and said set of guide dots extending through the incomplete perimeter of the aiming ring into an area external of the aiming ring;
wherein, each set of guide dots is arranged as a series of dots, each pair of adjacent dots having an interstitial spacing, extending in a straight linear fashion and each dot represents a generic aiming point.

Abstract
The present invention is a reticule featuring both rapid close-quarters target acquisition and precise distance shooting functionality. The reticule features a broad central aiming ring and four sets of aiming point-indicating dots. The lowest set comprises dots of differing dimensions and distances apart. Ranging rings are also provided. In an alternate embodiment the aiming ring comprises a plurality of varying transparent and opaque cells. The reticule can be illuminated through known or future discovered means for low-light or night shooting. A further alternate embodiment features a caliber specific ranging system.
