As we have discussed on the other forums , I love me an ACOG as much as the next guy but never bought one- For one, they are just so extremely expensive, They have a very specific practical application /usage mission, and I feel like it's like a Pringle, once you pop, you can't stop, one would never be enough.

 

Anyway I had long thought it was cool exploring their website, seeing the different models and magnifications/sizes and also the specific uses for some , one designed for the M249 SAW, One designed for the M240 7.62, etc. the M2 Browning in 50 BMG, even they make a 7.62x39mm for an AK presumably... Just lots of cool stuff. Really could be asking this question about a ton of the models .. 1.5? 5.5? what firearms did they design each one for (if there is some sort of sheet or info you guys know of that says, we designed this model for this gun etc. plz let me know)

 

Specifically I was on Volquartsen's page looking for stuff for my 597... Always loved Volquartsen.. anyway under the Optics section for the Remington 597 they have the ACOG TA11B which is the 3.5x with the circle reticle w/ several triangles inside it... Who knows what this is for to begin with, Apparently "because of the export laws" Trijicon would not even provide the MOA info of the reticle to some Arfcom ppl who asked.

 

So if its listed on the 597 page I'm wondering if it is for .22LR? Then I see it featured prominently on top of the Volquartsen Fusion rifle, which is an amazingly beautiful VQ takedown with .22LR, .22WMR, .17HMR etc. bbls, and it looks amazing with the ACOG on top, and it made me think, is this a rimfire reticle ACOG?

 

Does anyone know anything about this model ACOG and the reticle?

 

Thanks.

The circle chevron is common in military reticles. Personally I dont like it. I dont know what the subtentiones are for the Acog, but Im sure if you scout around enough someone can cough it up.

 

Here is one in a US Optics 1-4 and its subtentions as an example.

 

 

Ahh just reread this, thank you that looks very very similar.

 

Who uses it in the military if I can ask ? very interested in stuff lik that.

I could have sworn I posted this in the General Firearms Discussion forum. amazing, I had tracked a few posts the past few weeks of mine disappearing from threads , now topics travelling. Anyway thanks Shane if you have any more info on this i'd be happy to study it. If that ACOG model does go with the rimfires like VQ has made it seem, it might make me need a new rimfire rifle soon.

Dont quote me on this but I think its an older reticle. The curren reticle used in RCO models in use are just a chevron and stadia IIRC. If I had to venture a guess as to why this reticle found favor for Volquartsen users that want to sport an Acog, it would be that the point of the triangle could offer a finer aiming point than a dot etc etc.
