Note: The reticle illumination of the 5-25x56 LR has no
automatic shutdown. Please make sure that the reticle illu-
mination is switched o after use.
Note: The reticle illumination in the ZP5 riflescopes has
been designed specifically for use in twilight or darkness.
It can be finely dimmed such as not to overpower the tar-
get image even in almost complete darkness. The reticle
illumination is not intended for use in daylight. Even the
brightest settings are barely visible in daytime. This is not
due to dead batteries or a defect but corresponds to the
intended use of the scope.
RETICLE FEATURES
The reticle in the MINOX 5-25x56 LR is located in the 1st focal
plane. This means that the reticle is magnified at the same ratio
as the target image and that the reticle subtensions remain
unchanged in relation to the image.
Independent of the magnification, the reticle can be used to
accurately determine range and trajectory compensation. All
available reticles are equipped with illumination intended for
use in twilight or darkness only. The illumination can be finely
dimmed to avoid glaring or distraction from the target.
MRAD SCALE
The horizontal and vertical Mrad Scale is arranged symmet-
rically to the AQRAS Scale and is divided into 0.1 mrad incre-
ments, enabling measurements with an accuracy of down to
0.05 mrad, depending on the magnification. This is particularly
useful for precise measurements when determining the dis-
tance to targets of known size by using the following formula:
Target size [mm] ÷ scale value [mrad] = distance [m]
The horizontal measurement range is up to 10 mrad and the
vertical measurement range is up to 10 mrad, if the crosshair
lines are used as baselines.
The size of targets at known distances can also be determined.
This can be useful if for example, a target is viewed at a known
distance and the range to a similar-sized target at an unknown
distance needs to be determined.
This is the formula to determine the target size:
Scale value [mrad] ∙ distance [m] = target size [mm]
