SHEPHERD RETICULE

Choose the circle that fits your target and fire

 
NO DIALLING.....NO ZOOMING AND NO CALCULATIONS TO DO.....
JUST FIT AND FIRE !!
 
In the illustration above, the deer fits the 500 yard circle.  That's how far he is.  The centre of each circle is the correct bullet drop for that range.
Put the circle that fits on the deer and fire.  It's that simple.  If the animal is too big for the 300 yard circle, that means he is closer than 300 yards, so put the 200 yard line on him and shoot. 
If he is too big for one circle and too small for the other, just hold in between circles and shoot.
 
The circles on the full bore scope reticules are 18 inches.  Those on the .22 LR are 9 inches.
 
COMMON ANIMAL SIZES
 
A red deer is approx 18 inches from shoulder to brisket.
Side on, a fox from shoulder to “butt” is usually about 18 inches From nose to shoulder an average fox is 9 inches, so you can use half an 18 inch circle. 
An average sized fox approaching you is about 9 inches from the top of its head to its chest. Again, fit it in half of a circle and fire.
Elk is 18 " from nose to back of the head, (or use whichever circle fills 3/4 of his body mass, which is 24" shoulder to brisket).
Coyote is 18 " standing (from ground to top of back)
Prairie dog is 9" for standing adult (use whichever circle he fits half of)
Antelope is 14 " shoulder to brisket (use whichever circle the body mass fill 3/4 of).
Military Silouette target is 18-20" across the shoulders.  Head is 9" (half a circle)
