I havent had any issues with the chevron, but havent shot it past yds yet. Have to agree with diving Dave though Another vote for the TA33R8 red chevron, 5. I have shot it from 5 to yds. I ran a TA with a red donut from as a deputy sheriff. I love that scope. I switched to a RDS for my M4. A buddy has a TA with the amber chevron.
I got to play with all of them at SHOT this year and in the past. The green was cool and I am on the fence with it. A buddy just bought one and is waiting for the brown truck to bring it home. The horse shoe ret is going to take me some time to get used to. It just seemed a bit busy.
Horseshoe trumps chevron, because you can actually look through the reticle pattern to shoot and the outer portion of the horseshoe gives you a no-crap m range estimation capability. Doughnut, the lack of a specified aimpoint inside the circle makes it possible, even likely, that groups will swim around your desired strike area. Okay for snap shots, after a fashion, but not great for anything resembling precision. Scientifically, green is your best color, because it sits right smack dab in the middle of the visible light spectrum, and is the color your eye is most transparent to.
Hold a red, green, and amber light dot up on a wall all at the same measurable level of intensity , the human eye will register green as brighter even though it actually isn't. It will also pick it up faster. Of all the colors, it is the least likely to not show up against a similar-color background because the Trijicon one is set to nanometer wavelength, and there are few colors in nature to match it. Mostly, man creates garbage in that tone lasers, reticles, shitty clothes. Ooh-rah, science.
Regarding color, that's still based on bell-curve stuff. I've seen a lot of folks do better with amber or red vs.
Those bell-curves have a left and right side to them, too. Only way to really tell which color works best for you is to shoot with each. Same to be said of reticle type too, though. Bottom line, of all the Trijicon stuff we test, green horseshoe has generally resulted in the best balance of speed and accuracy in regard to how the shooter interacts with it. Over the years as a LEO I've used several models. I started with the TA01 and TA31's. Of those I preferred the dual illumination models as I generally worked at night.
At the time I was using them I was using them on my patrol rifle as a rural deputy sheriff. I had friends who really liked the TA's with the donuts but I stayed away as I didn't like the larger profile.
I liked the TA01 for longer range precise shots but it was at a disadvantage close in as the recticle was difficult to see quickly. I generally fought with the TA when trying to use it up close, eye relief and paralax issues. I prefer the red Chevron, but I also have the green horseshoe and it's good too.
The red chevron just shows up a lot better around these parts. Red Chevron. I like the sharp point of aim and simplicity. Although I'd probably prefer the red chevron, I do love the green chevron on mine.
Green horseshoe ta33 Red chevron ta11 Each for its own purpose, but I like both equally. Having used most the reticles, I'd say the chevron. Red or green, doesn't matter to me. The FOV isn't too cluttered and the chevron doesn't obscure much of the target.
It is difficult for me to hoot groups with it though. I've also had a TA with the crosshair reticle. The only one I've kept is the red chevron. Quoted: Having used most the reticles, I'd say the chevron.
I used to like the chevron, but now prefer the horseshoe. The horseshoe is quicker to pickup at close range. There is no m hold if you want that.
I think it would be extremely useful for posters to state, along with reticle preference, the general purpose s for which their preferred reticle is best suited. Tell us what the reticle is best for, what it does OK, and what it will not do at all, or does poorly. For example: "I prefer "X" reticle for close range use. It is unsuitable for long-range purposes. With a bit of training, it does all things well, but is best at medium ranges, say, yds".
Are there any "General-Purpose" reticles which do all things well, but particularly shine at some? Which ones, and where do they shine?
Quoted: I used to like the chevron, but now prefer the horseshoe. Red chevron on the ta31rco, green crosshairs on the ta31ch. If I was forced to use an acog. I love everything about them but the eye relief. Green horseshoe is my favorite. Quoted: Interesting. Anyone tried the amber colored reticles? Red chevron here. I have or had chevron, triangle, circle dot, and donut. Red, green, yellow. Circle dot In green seems like the best to me. Green donut is pretty cool too.
Quoted: I have or had chevron, triangle, circle dot, and donut. Quoted: I never understood the donut reticle, other than for maybe use on a machine gun. How did you zero it in? What was your point of aim? The donut is sort of goofy, and why I much prefer the horseshoe.
Just as fast up close but much more precise. I think a Green reticle is the best color option. Red chevron on my TA Like it a lot! Green crosshairs. View Quote yep, me too. Use the m position top of the post for pinpoint group targets.
Doesn't really matter if your POI is a little high just for testing the accuracy of a particular load by shooting groups. View Quote Zero M to the top of the dot 12 o'clock and the bottom of the dot 6 o'clock is pretty darn close. View Quote I have owned the Chevron, Donut, and Horseshoe reticles, but switched to the Crosshair reticle about 6 years ago, and haven't looked back. At the time, I was spending more time on a bench than out in the wild, and wanted to see better accuracy at close range and at distance.
