Application-Specific Features

Inside the TREMOR8™-M Reticle

Four purpose-built systems combine wind, zero, drop, and target-size references in one MRAD sight picture.

The wind dots are calibrated by cartridge: 6 mph for 5.56 62 gr, 8 mph for 7.62 175 gr, and 10 mph for 6.5 140 gr. These are fixed application references, not a universal ballistic-app output.

At 100 meters, the guide places the 6.5 140 gr and 5.56 62 gr zero reference 1.0 MRAD above center and the 7.62 175 gr reference 1.7 MRAD above center. It also provides a 0.1 MRAD reference for a 25 meter 5.56 zero.

Dedicated 400, 500, and 600 meter BDC markings cover all three specified calibers, with maximum point-blank use under 400 meters as described by Horus.

Horizontal stadia bracket a 20-inch target width for rapid range estimation. Numbers 4, 6, 8, and 10 to the right of the vertical stadia identify mils below the horizontal stadia, not target ranges.

Reticle FAQ

TREMOR8™-M Questions

Technical answers based on Horus official TREMOR8-M page and field guide.

TREMOR8-M is a military reticle designed to meet USSOCOM and caliber-specific requirements. Horus says it uses patented reticle technology but is not intended outside the application for which it was designed.

    The official field guide assigns a different time-of-flight wind-dot value to each specified cartridge.

      At 100 meters, the 6.5 140 gr and 5.56 62 gr zero point is 1.0 MRAD above center, while the 7.62 175 gr point is 1.7 MRAD above center. A separate 0.1 MRAD reference supports a 25 meter 5.56 zero. Drop markings identify 400, 500, and 600 meters.

        The horizontal stadia provide brackets for estimating range from a 20-inch target width. The numbers 4, 6, 8, and 10 to the right of the vertical stadia are mil values below the horizontal stadia, not ranges.
