Redfield Revenge Accu-Ranger Reticles: Rangefinder Plus BDC for Affordable Price

Every hunter knows that game is not going to wait forever while you preparing your shot. However you still need to find comfortable position for the shot, determine the distance using laser rangefinder or your experience, choose appropriate holdover point or in the worse case - adjust your elevation dial. Finally you are ready to make your shot but game is already gone and you have to start from beginning. Many hunters have been in such situation.

Redfield have resolved this problem. They have invented Accu-Ranger reticle in their Revenge series that determines distance to the target and the best part is that your eye is on it all the time, so you will not lose it.

Right now you are probably thinking: "Oh, right, another reticle with laser rangefinder. You are not going to impress me with that!" However this reticle does not use a laser rangefinder to determine the distance. This makes scopes with Revenge Accu-Ranger reticle much affordable. The price is just slightly higher than for the scopes with regular ballistic reticle.

You'll end up getting a rifle scope with the ballistic reticle and range estimation ability for a very affordable price.

How does this reticle determine the distance without a laser rangefinder? It is quite simple. There are hash marks on higher vertical post, so called brackets. All you need to do is to turn magnification ring while an animal's body appears just between one of this bracket and center crosshair. There is another horizontal line that moves along vertical post while you are "bracketing" the game.

Vertical post has numbers from 2 to 6 that refers to 200, 300, 400, 500 and 600 yards. When you got your animal between that bracket and center of your reticle, simply look at the upper horizontal line. If it has stopped at number 3 then it means that your game is 300 yards away. Now all you need to do - is to use the right aiming point for holdover.

If it sounds complicated or too time consuming I assure you that everything is very simple and you can do it within a few seconds.

Accu-Ranger is an amazing reticle that goes with the reliable, durable and accurate Redfield Revenge scopes.

Of course Redfield takes care of all hunters from crossbow to varmint. There are four types of Accu-Ranger reticle: Crossbow, Hunter, Sabot ML and Varmint.

All four reticles have brackets for 16" and 25" targets. Varmint reticle has an additional 8" bracket. The 8" bracket is designed for prairie dog and other varmints of similar sizes. The 16" bracket will be proper for a deer, while 25" bracket is designed for elk and coyotes.

Accu-Ranger Crossbow is designed to meet all requirements of crossbow hunters. This reticle is a unique model within Accu-Ranger Ballistic series. Unlike the other three reticles it has holdover points for the distance of 20 to 60 yards and its numbers on the vertical post refer to these ranges.
