Veracity Riflescope Reticles
Veracity Riflescope Reticles help you overcome two of
the biggest challenges when shooting long-distance:
determining holdover at distance and hold-off for
wind drift. This technology is based on the popular
Burris Ballistic Plex® reticle that redefined trajectory
compensation. This section will explain how to use the
reticles found in Veracity Riflescopes.
Front Focal Plane (FFP)
All Veracity Riflescopes utilize a Front Focal Plane
system. Front Focal Plane systems (sometimes
referred to as First Focal Plane systems) place the
reticle in front of the erector assembly or zoom
mechanism. This allows the reticle to change size as
magnification is adjusted. In FFP systems, when
magnification is increased, the reticle size grows; as
magnification is lowered, the reticle size shrinks.
Because the reticle is changing with magnification, the
measurements of the reticle are always correct and are
proportional to whatever power setting you may be
on. This also means that the trajectory compensation
technology is also correct in Veracity Riflescopes at any
magnification.
