I would choose the top one. Probably because most of my scopes look like that one.

I would prefer the top one. I like that heavy, sharp look and more mil-dots.

I would prefer the top recticle too. The middle one looks like a European 3 post derivative and I have never liked them. The bottom one has the too thick posts comming in too close.
Top one looks like a Leapers mildot..........

I prefer the range estimating mil dot the top one. I like have an unobstructed view of my target. Night Force has the best reticles I've ever seen their mil dots are hollow. But they don't focus down to 10 yards and they are about 1500.

Yep...cheap camera, not through the lens focus, and it's hard to get a clear shot (guessing the right focus for a picture vs. the focus I use with my glasses on)...they all are sharp when in use.
Using them all, but found the Leapers (top one) has the dots a bit far spaced to be a whole lot of use in hold over....end up holding between the spaced dots. Would be better on a higher powered scope (this is on a 6x).
Bottom one is tightly spaced and is on a cheap scope. Have found it to be the easy to hold over (or under) with at shorter ranges (lower powered guns) were you are compensating for a few inches of drop. Is also on a 6X
Middle one isn't a bad compromise...like it well enough that it probably will be in my next scope...dot spacing is a bit more useful. Suspect I'd like it more for hunting if the reticle was 180degrees, with the thin line pointing down and more hash marks on that downward leg (you never need to hold under as much as you need to hold over). This one is on a 10X that gets used mostly for mini-sniping/targets.

A little measureing today while I shot all three scopes (and considering there was a swirling head wind, was a pretty good day).
The wide spacing of the 6X BugBuster gives something close to 7.5MOA between dots. For airguns, can consider that something close to 3.75-3.8" at 50yards.
The center spacing of that 10X is runing right at 3.3MOA..call it 1.65" at 50yards. IF I could think in metric, would probably work out to some more even number (and it's an eyeball/home amde grid estimation anyway, so kind of ignore that last digit.)
The little 6x at the bottom is running 3MOA, or about 1 1/2" at 50yards per hash-mark.
Used the same rifle for all three (an RWS 75) to keep it more apples-to-apples (and whent back to match apature at the end of the day...like that rifle with iron).

I like the top one also. I don't need critters looking back though, just dangerous paper!

I like the top one, I like thin cross hairs, they don't obscure small targets plus the mill dot's are useful.

I vote for the top one, it does not look as busy as the others to me. Of course I would use any of them if it was what I had. I need all the view I can get.
