a little history.  U.S. Marine Corps sniping program, mid 1960's, Vietnam war... the Winchester model 70 rifle in .30 caliber (30-06) was never officially adopted by the USMC as a sniper rifle for Marines in Vietnam.  However, the Unertl 8x optic was and had been placed in storage. It's this optic that allowed some of the most phenomenal combat sniper shooting ever,to  happen.  The Unertl 8x (actual power was 7.8x) was the same optic  used  in WW2 on  M1903A1 rifles, and with even with its drawbacks (operator return to battery after each shot, not sealed, physically long, limited field of view fixed 7.8 power) The Unertl , USMC, Sniper 8x , rifle telescope did have one huge  advantage, 200 minutes of angle,  for elevation adjustment, in 1/4MOA and later 1/2MOA clicks.  This allowed the Winchester model 70 in .30-06 to be zeroed in 100 yard increments out to 1200yds and some rifles to 1500 yds depending on the snipers skill to hold a tight enough group at distance.  Some raw data here -  with approximately 3.5MOA per mil-rad, that is 57 mil-rad in the USMC Unertl 8x !!!  Compared with  alot of modern offerings in the 19 mil-rad range for internal elevation, these 'modern' scopes only offer 66.5 MOA! What a contrast. . .

thank you for participating !  interesting to note how things shook down;  though you could determine what some of the reticles were(horus, mp-8)  you were not aware of what the scope manufacturer was....  and this was the idea, just a raw opinion , not biased on any preference for a particular optic or brand.
