Hi All,

I posted this on the Joustericon forum, but I am advised that Mr. Laidlericon, for one, is active in this forum rather than the old one; so if it's OK with everyone, I'd like to copy it here:

Yesterday at the range, I was asked a question that not only could I not answer, but had never occurred to me to ponder.

Does the distance between the cross-wire and the tip of the pointer represent some specific distance in use, or is it a design/construction parameter?

It appears to me to represent about 9" at 100 yards. That would make it almost exactly centre mass of an average Hun at 500 yards, but I cannot think that could be the answer.

Does anyone think it represents some useful measurement? Any reason why it would be designed that way if not for use in the field?

Cheers.
