Schmidt & Bender P4FL

Drawn to scale from Schmidt & Bender’s own specification sheet, and checked mark by mark by a person. This is the same geometry Harson Ballistics draws your holdover on.

Framed to about 12 MRAD — the part of the reticle you aim with. This reticle carries marks out to 60 MRAD; the rest sits beyond the edge of this drawing.

Drawn from Schmidt & Bender GmbH & Co. KG’s published specification.

Subtensions

First focal plane, mrad, from S&B's dimensioned reticle data sheet for this scope (page 2 drawing + lettered coverage table, page 3 views of the field at lowest and highest magnification). Illuminated centre cross, then clear glass to the 1 mrad mark. Windage and upper stadia: 0.4 mrad marks every mrad, 0.2 mrad marks at the half, and from 4.2 to 4.8 a 0.2 mrad fine scale of one-sided 0.1 mrad marks above the horizontal line and right of the vertical. Heavy 0.4 mrad posts with tips 10 mrad apart. Lower stadia marked every 0.5 mrad. Ranging: a 16 mrad bar and four 3 mrad bars above it bracketing a 50 cm target at 500/400/300/200 m. Sheet letters (cm/100 m / 10 = mrad): A 10 post opening, B 1 and D 0.5 mark spacing, C 0.8 wide mark, E 0.4 full mark, F 0.2 half mark, G 0.1 fine mark, H 0.035 line, K 1.545 red cross, L 0.056 red line, M 16 long bar at -10, N 3 short bars, P/R/S/T ranging. Post thickness 0.4 and bar thickness 0.1 are not lettered; measured from the vector drawing. The field at lowest magnification is 65 mrad, past this app's plausibility limits, so the lower line and its marks are drawn to 50 mrad and the posts to 60; the sheet continues the same pattern to the edge of the field.

How this one was checked

Verified 8 Oct 2026 against Schmidt-Bender-Datasheet-P4FL-FFP-3-27x56-High-Power.pdf (P4FL.zip), pages 2 and 3. Vector drawing, measured on FILL geometry only (outline strokes dropped, dimension arrows excluded). The record was rasterised the way the app draws it and XOR-compared with page 2 and with page 3's lowest-magnification view; page 2 scale from A: top post tip 91.215 pt above centre (308.43, 381.86) = 5 mrad -> 18.243 pt/mrad; red cross 1.546 across x 0.056 (K, L), line 0.035 (H), M 16.00 at -10.00, N 3.00, ranging bars 1.00/1.25/1.67/2.50 above it (P/R/S/T), full/half/wide/fine marks 0.40/0.20/0.80/0.10 (E/F/C/G), spacing 1/0.5 (B/D). XOR at 600 dpi (152 px/mrad): no disagreement inside the page-2 frame. Page 3 (scale refined on M to 2.434 pt/mrad): agrees to 50 mrad, where the record stops by design; the sheet carries the same pattern to the field edge at 65. Fine scale one-sided above / right of the line; no numerals.
