Aeon scope reticle

[Cally88]

anyone know where to find a pic or pdf of the aeon scope subtensions, a numerical value off of the center of each hash mark.  Thanks

Try this guy, he's the US distributor.

This is third time visiting this post and was wondering the same thing.  So it got me thinking if at a given distance say 25 yrds. Then if I was to put up a ruler and set the zoom to where the hash mark was at 1/4".  That would be 1" at a hundred yards.
IIRC most second focal plane scopes show true MOA at a hundred yards at 10x power.  JMO

Here's what I posted elsewhere on the Trajectory reticle in my 3-12X--

Just got the 3-12X in and it looks great at 1st check. Big, heavy scope, probably the same design as my old Weaver Kaspa
I sent it to the PI several years ago, so I can’t remember exactly. Parallax wheel has some sort of ever so slight bumpiness feel to it as it’s turned, but matches my laser well as far as I can see. Typical Chinese tgt. turret, which really ain’t too bad as far as I can see.

Turret is advertised correct at ~110 total travel.

Now the reticle measures out to be 1.8 SMOA (.5 mil) in the repeating part of the grid (horizontal axis and upper and part of lower axis to the #1 stadia of the ballistic “trajectory” reticle part).

X-#1 = 12.6 SMOA
 X-#2 = 25.2    ”
X-#3 = 40       ”

Horizontal subtensions (windage)=
 #1 = 2.65 SMOA
 #2 = 3.0      ”
#3 = 3.7      ”

Lowest stadia (#3) is a bit out of focus the same as any other long tree reticle would be at the edge of the FOV, forcing your eye relief/angle to be critical to see the #3 stadia well when the rest of the reticle is in focus.

Should net 150…ish MOA compensation (@12X) with the Burris Sig. Zee rings, shimmed if necessary.

1st impression is that I love it…so far.

Edit–horizontal revolution indicator lines on turret shaft are marked backwards, but that’s workable I guess? Windage turret is marked at 15 SMOA all around instead of having it’s own turret style at 7.5 each way–also workable…

I have a message in to steve as of last night.  I am very surprised that with all the measurements on the reticle and the rising popularity of these scopes that there is not more information about them....  The Aeon line seems very promising if we can find out what the measurements really mean.  I will keep you posted on the results.....

Update is that the manufacturer does not have the specs, and the workaround suggested by steve was to shoot and keep a shooting diary, disappointing.

I am very surprised that the manufacturer is not able to provide measurements of the reticle.

I guess i will be going with a brand that has better service, bummer cause i liked the options that the aeon line offered.

Sorry no help from with the reticle........have 3 of these scopes and keep trying others including 2 hawks, and a viper.  And keep going back to one of my 8x32 aeons. Only thing that I can find wrong with them is no turret lock which seem to get moved and no way to really tighten down to keep from moving.
Very good scopes for the money with some of the best glass on the market.
To my recollection have not seen any measurments but will look around.

Well seems the link I saved with all that info back in the winter no longer exists and what I have saved is for other scopes.

Sorry, should have not opened my mouth till I was sure of the info..........live and learn

Ok anyone with an aeon scope with the trajectory reticle willing to help with measuring the subtensions? 

My calculations yield a simple conversion allowing a ruler and masuring tape to be used. 

3.6inch/100yards = 1inch/27.77778yards

Each mil dot should measure 1"

So measuring the distance between each subtension should allow for mil spacing in reticle.  Only caveiat is that measurements need to be at the magnification the scope is calibrated.
