Just my opinion. I've had the opportunity to use both the Horus and other types of reticules over the years. I find the Horus busy and obtrusive. It is a great reticule for long distance sniping. If (and only if) you have a spotter with a Horus reticule spotting scope, the correction calls can be rapid. Anyone who says they can spot their own rounds with the Horus is not practicing proper follow though.

For "combat" sniping, I have not found a better reticule than the mil dot reticule. Call me old fashioned, but it's the bee's knees for rapid target acquisition. I can actually see the target and it's not obscured by lines and dashes. This is crucial when shooting a man who is sprinting across an alley (or boulder to boulder) at a distance. I've also heard the same from fellow sharpshooters who have had to engage dynamic targets at a distance.
