Abstract
A separate opaque reticle display attachment for a rifle or the like equipped with a telescopic sight. The user sights through the telescopic sight with his bore axis eye while simultaneously viewing an opaque reticle display screen which is aligned with his other eye. The display includes a cross-hairs aiming reticle. Transducers gather information relative to wind velocity and direction, ambient temperature, relative humidity, target elevation, and the like, which affect the ballistic trajectory of a projectile fired from the rifle. This information along with range information is fed to a microprocessor, which adjusts the position of the cross-hairs reticle on the display for proper aiming of the rifle. The user, by simultaneously viewing through the telescopic sight with one eye and viewing the opaque reticle display with the other eye, combines or superposes the two images into a single field of vision to aim the rifle in accordance with the position of the cross-hairs reticle.
