Abstract
A ballistic effect compensating reticle (e.g.,or) and ammunition adaptive aim compensation method for rifle sights or projectile weapon aiming systems includes a multiple point elevation and windage aim point field (e.g.,or) including a primary aiming mark (e.g.,or) indicating a primary aiming point adapted to be sighted-in at a first selected range and a plurality of secondary aiming points arrayed beneath the primary aiming mark. The method for compensating for a projectile's ballistic behavior while developing a field expedient firing solution permits the shooter to express the field expedient firing solution in units of distance, (e.g., yards or meters, when describing or estimating range and nominal air density ballistic characteristics), and velocity (e.g., mph or kph, for windage hold points). The adaptive method allows a shooter in the field to adapt to changes in available ammunition (e.g., from M118LR to M80) and compensate for variations in ammunition as well as changes in atmospheric conditions.
