I just ordered a Leupold Mark 4 with the TS 32X1 reticle. I was just wondering if anyone here has some experience with it and what you think?
TS 32X1 Reticle?

Wouldn't it have been better to ask the question BEFORE you bought it? Sorry, I couldn't resist.

These types of reticles have been around for a while, and I believe they were first developed by a company called Horus Vision in the early/mid 2000s. They were developed for tactical shooting, with the idea that they offered a more precise version of a stadia reticle for use when dialing dope was too slow. They certainly serve a purpose, but to take advantage of them you need to spend a bunch of time training your brain and eye to translate your drop/wind drift into the grid.
The one place I can see a hunter taking advantage of this would be prairie dog hunting where you need to take a lot of shots at varying distances, and you don't have time to dial a scope.
So, I guess the question is what do you intend to use it for?

Haha I knew that was coming! Thanks for being "That Guy"
But in all seriousness, I had a semi custom rifle built. I live in PA so I wanted something that I could use in a tree stand, but also use it out west for antelope, deer, or elk. So I went with a 300 WSM with a 22" barrel and a muzzle brake for an overall length of 24". I wanted to put a good scope on it and found a deal on the Mark 4 with that reticle so I ordered it. I liked the idea of having the M1 turrets as well as an MOA based reticle, so I could use either. I read reviews on other forums and most guys seemed to like it. I was initially worried it was too busy or cluttered, but their reviews said the dots are more subdued than the crosshairs. So I jumped on it. Was just curious of others' experiences with it...
