Vortex VMR-2 MOA
Drawn to scale from Vortex’s own specification sheet, and checked mark by mark by a person. This is the same geometry Harson Ballistics draws your holdover on.
Drawn from Vortex Optics’s published specification.

Subtensions
SFP; the sheet: 'subtensions measured in MOA and correspond to the highest magnification' (6x). The Siren sheet prints the Razor HD Gen II-E VMR-2 MOA figures (centre dot .5, line .5, bars 1.75 thick from 35 and 45, marks every 4 MOA 1.5 and 3 long) and draws the Razor sheet's outline vertex for vertex EXCEPT the line above centre: the Razor sheet prints '.6 (top line only)' and draws it so; the Siren sheet prints no .6 and draws that line .5 like the rest. Geometry otherwise that of vortex-vmr-2-moa: Official VMR-2 MOA manual, page 3 subtension diagram, which is labelled "Reticle image shown for representation only". Published: centre dot 0.5; crosshair 0.5 thick with the stadium above centre 0.6 (top line only); heavy bars 1.75 thick from +/-35 windage and -45 elevation; marks 1.5 and 3.0 long. Pages 5 and 6 state the marks on both crosshairs are graduated in 4 MOA increments. Windage marks run to 16 MOA and elevation to 24, and the marks ALTERNATE - 1.5 long at 4, 12 and 20, 3.0 at 8, 16 and 24 - which is the whole point of the pattern and what makes an 8 MOA hold findable without counting. Nothing above centre but the plain 0.6 stadium: no marks, no bar. SFP - the manual states the subtensions are only accurate at the highest magnification, 6x on this scope.
How this one was checked
Verified 9 Oct 2026 against specs/vortex/VTX_SRN-1601_VMR-2_MOA_RS_I_RI_ST_2024.pdf page 1 (re-downloaded from the source URL the same day, byte-identical). Outline compared vertex for vertex with VTX_RZR-16010 (the sheet behind the verified vortex-vmr-2-moa record): identical but for the top line, drawn .5 here. Every published callout is checked in tools/build_vortex_wave2.py and lands. Checklist walked: rows and extents, hash spacing, numerals, centre element and gap, post tips, which side of the line each mark sits (all centred unless the notes say otherwise), every callout.
