Pentax precision plex reticle
« on: November 18, 2007, 04:32:16 PM »
has anyone taken the time to figure out how to apply the Precision Plex to their rifle?
i hear Pentax includes no instructions whatsoever to using it.

Here is a link to a breakdown of several ways to apply ballistic and rangefinding reticles. Altho it's about the Ball. Plex reticle it can be considered generic for any 2nd focal plane reticle out there really--including simple plex--

Here's another link that's a little more comprehensive--

I finally found a diagram on the eabco website. You'd think Pentax would put it on their web site.

Just bought two and both came with full instructions and ballistic charts. I will not use mine for rangefinding, I will use my bush 1500 for that. I will use the extra crosshairs as reference points somewhat like that of bow sights.
