The MissionHorus Vision began with the simple desire to see how far we could shoot while maintaining a high degree of accuracy, but without increasing manual scope manipulationand mental calculations. Soon, however, our passion for precision shooting pushed us toward groundbreaking technologies and designs that would ensure accuracy at anydistance. We wanted to give the serious shooter a reliablesystem that would radically boost target range and makesuccess consistent.
So we developed the Horus Vision System 5: the only completetargeting system specifically designed to bring precise aimingcontrol to today’s field shooter. Combining revolutionaryadvances in reticle technology with dedicated targeting software, the Horus Vision System 5 eliminates guessworkand delay once and for all.
Today, the Horus Vision System 5 has been field tested fromoutback to tundra and been proven across U.S. military combatoperations. The result is an unbeatable long-range shootingsystem used by military, police, and sportsmen around theworld. From optics to targeting software, from scopes to calibration devices, the Horus Vision System 5 exists to give the marksman consistently repeatable first-round hits atextreme range.
System5 Systems simplify success. You do the difficult in a split second.The impossible takes a little longer—unless you have a system.Introducing Horus Vision System 5, a complete targeting systemthat makes bulls-eye hits fast, easy, and repeatable—as far outas 2,500 yards. Designed to make the specialization of the few available to all, the Horus Vision System 5 tames targetacquisition distances and boosts target elimination speed. And only one company delivers it.
Reticles Scopes Software Spotting ScopesCalibration
How do you turn skill into bulls-eye consistency? Systematize your shooting. The Horus VisionSystem 5 makes it simple: Synthesizing thereticle, scope, targeting software, calibrationtools, and spotting scope, Horus Vision offersthe world’s only system for surgical precisionat long range. Our targeting software com-bines atmospheric, ballistic, and target datawith military-grade optics and combat-provenhardware to extend your effective range andincrease your accuracy. With minimal trainingtime, you’ll see dramatic improvements in thedistance and speed of your target elimination.
Each component in the Horus Vision System 5 works to deliver expert precision at long range. The revolutionary Horus Visionreticle—an evolutionary step beyond theconventional mil dot design—is optically precise and ergonomic, with a built-in rangefinder and groundbreaking targeting grid.Forget delays in adjusting windage or elevationknobs. Horus Vision reticles eliminate the need,
speeding target acquisition and minimizing frustratingmechanical factors. All Horus Vision scopes are made withsuperior optics and exceed military standards. Our spottingscope improves long-range observation in extreme conditionsso you can identify and gather more target data faster,enabling better communication between spotter and shooter. Horus Vision targeting software focuses only on the task at hand: hitting the target. And the CATS calibration system trues the rifle and scope across the entire range, maximizing your accuracy under any conditions.The result: reliable, repeatable success in the field.
The principle behind the Horus Vision System 5 is to makeexpert skill possible through simplified, systemized shooting.From reticle to targeting software, the Horus Vision systemworks to deliver long-range precision previously unavailableto the field shooter.

“While under fire, fine motor skills (i.e., turningthe BDC) diminish and the mil dot guessinggame begins... Not with the Horus System.There is no guesswork—the answer is inside my scope 24 hours a day and 7 days a week!”
SSG. C.S., U.S. Army
ReticlesThe foundation of the Horus Vision System 5, our patentedHorus Vision reticles introduce a next-generation grid systemthat extends outdated mil dot targeting. Horus Vision reticlesimprove on bulky mil dots with easy-to-read, calibrated finehack marks that do not obscure targets, and a reference grid system that reduces training time to mere hours. Horusreticles are built with ergonomically precise, high-qualityoptics, so they’re comfortable to use and extremely accurate.
Key design differences within the reticles allow you to use the fullpotential of your rifle and ammunition. The Horus Vision reticle:
• Eliminates mechanical tolerances and their eventual deviations
• Delivers instant come-ups by moving the target immediately to the proper position on the grid—you no longer have totwist knobs
• Provides a built-in system for second-shot correction and fasttransitions for multiple targets

Spotting Scope Reticle
Falcon H27With a narrower, less crowded grid, the H27 performs when the mission calls for prolongedobservation along with target strike; especially when wind is not so much of a factor. The H27 hasthe same illuminated pattern as the H25 and H37.
Predator H70Developed for daylight varmint hunters used tomeasuring in yards, the H70 is calibrated in theShooter’s Minute Of Angle (SMOA), which subtends to one inch at exactly 100 yards. It features thin lines to enhance aiming at varmint-size targets, and allows further reach by offsetting the reticle pattern higher in thefield of view.
Falcon H25The H25 was designed specifically for militaryuse. It has thick center lines for quick targeting.A rheostat controls illumination for twilight conditions and the illuminated pattern is wellsuited to night vision devices. The H25 has aninverted “L” for range finding and will work with all types of ammunition.
Hawk HH425 Designed for general hunting and made without illumination to satisfy regulations, the HH425 featuresa range finder in the lower left quadrant that usesstandard IOA (inch of angle) measure for easy calculations. The grid allows quick, precise shots, frompoint blank to out beyond 600 yards. The HH425comes with range cards for all popular calibers.
Spotting H32 and H36 Horus Vision’s spotting reticles feature square grids for range estimation, target speed calculation,and second-shot correction. They precisely matchthe mil grids of our riflescopes so that spotter andshooter share a common frame of reference thatenables concise communications.

ScopesIt’s a straightforward proposition—the more light that passesthrough the scope, the better you can see and the more accurately you can shoot. We build all Horus Vision scopesusing the best glass and best coatings available. They areunparalleled in brightness and clarity, from the center to theedge of the lens. Our optics were independently tested to beon par with the world’s best, and our demanding calibrationmeans a mil is a true mil, no matter what. Built to exceed military toughness standards, every Horus Vision scope is combat proven in today’s U.S. military field operations.

FalconThe Falcon is a superb scope for all needs, from those of the weekend sportsmanto the rigorous needs of S.W.A.T. units to those of the battlefield. With a solidsteel tube, this scope is tough enough to stand up to continuous punishmentfrom a 50-caliber rifle. The Falcon is designed to meet your needs, including controls where you’d expect them, extra travel for elevation and windage knobs(in 1/10th mil clicks), side parallax adjustment, solid construction, illumination forgray light conditions, and much more.
• Featured reticles: H25, H27, and H37
Hawk For the all-around hunter who wants versatility and distance, the Hawk isan easy-to-use, non-illuminated, no-nonsense scope. Unlike other scopeswith specialty reticles that lock you into a specific cartridge, the Hawkenables you to match gridline numbers to any cartridge for accurate and easy aiming. It comes with come-up cards for the most popular hunting cartridges. Simply attach the come-up card of your ammo to your riflestock, zero the Hawk, and you’re ready to shoot.
• Featured reticle: HH425
Talon The Talon combines rapid, point blank use with long-range (600 yards) target acquisition. It offers comfortable eye relief and can be illuminated. The Single Plane H50 reticle illuminates with a ring and cross pattern, whilethe Dual Plane H47 illuminates with an extra-bright central dot. True 1x powerallows for the largest field of view when shooting with both eyes open.
Both Talon scopes are light, short, and tough. As versatile CQT scopes, they can just as easily be mounted on tactical shotguns or big game rifles. The reticle’s large center circle eliminates close-in threats with incredible speed,while mid- and long-range targets are easily handled by our patented gridand software. Marks on the main horizontal line approximate the lead compensation needed to quickly dispatch walking, running, or sprinting targets.
Truly the soldier’s scope, the Talon is the world’s fastest gross acquisition firecontrol system for your rifle.
• Featured reticles: Single Plane H50 and Dual Plane H47
Predator Time is critical when you’re hunting varmints. By the time you finish twistingknobs, the little critter could disappear. The Predator is a multirange scopedesigned for the varmint hunter. It has the thin-lined H70 reticle (so as not to obscure smaller targets), calibrated in inches for fast calculation. There’s noneed to adjust windage or elevation knobs—you just count hack marks tofind your holdover, aim, and shoot.

CalibrationAn instrument is only as accurate as its calibration. Tuning ofthe instruments must be performed with the proper setup.Long-range rifles and scopes are no exception. Enter HorusVision’s Combination Accuracy Targeting System (CATS) calibration system and Angle Slope Level Indicator (ASLI).Together, they bring the rifle and scope relationship effectivelyto real-world conditions.
CATS ensures that your scope is calibrated correctly withoutthe need of expensive measuring devices. The ASLI makessure that the scope and rifle are tuned and are being usedwhile correctly aligned to gravity. Together, they give youthe confidence in your equipment that you can only getwith certified precision tools.
ASLIThe Horus Vision ASLI gives the sophisticatedmarksman a slope indicator and cant indicator ina single, precision engineered, hermetically sealedunit. It’s reversible and can be mounted on eitherside of the scope to accommodate both right- and left-handed shooters. The ASLI eliminates theguesswork in uphill and downhill shots. To findcorrect level/ground distance, simply multiply therange to the target by the cosine value shownon the slope indicator. For long-range shots, thecant indicator is invaluable for keeping your bulletflight true to your sighted aim. The ASLI attachesdirectly to your scope, doesn’t need batteries, andcomes with a hard rubber cap.
CATSLong-range shooting requires precise elevationand windage adjustments to accurately engagedistant targets. Therefore, it is critical that theriflescope’s elevation and windage adjustmentknobs yield precise adjustments. When a marksman engages distant targets and misses,the blame is generally first placed on theammo, then the rifle, and finally, the shooter.The riflescope is almost never seen as a sourceof trouble.
Because a lot of money is usually spent on riflescopes, it is falsely assumed that they areperfectly calibrated optical instruments. Not so.Even the most expensive scopes may be off. To check this, Horus Vision has produced thelow-tech, reliable, inexpensive CombinationAccuracy Targeting System (CATS), which isdesigned for use at 100 yards. You do not need a 500- or 2,000-yard range.
At last, with CATS, a scope’s elevation andwindage adjustments can be verified, alongwith the relationship of the scope’s mount tothe rifle. CATS will reveal and help correct problems with cant, maximal elevation, run out, and the point of elevation where the scope no longer tracks on the perpendicular.
An additional bonus we discovered while developing CATS is that it can be used effectively to train long-range shooting on a short 100-yard range.
