Abstract
An improved optical device for use in aiming guns is provided by combining a conventional telescopic gunsight with a reticle having an optical center, an edge and one or more aiming points, and a ring which is positioned optically between the optical center and the edge whereby said ring can be visually centered in a field of view for aiding users in aligning their line of sight through the optical device. The optical device can be any conventional optical device used by shooters as an aid to aiming such as, for example, gunsights, riflescopes, spotting scopes, binoculars and the like.
