* While the reticle is primarily for determining if you are aiming well or not, it can also be used to determine the spray of your weapon. Weapons such as the [[sniper rifle]] are very accurate and do not have a spray pattern or area of effect, so the reticle is very small, but weapons with a larger spray, such as the [[shotgun]], pre-''Halo 5: Guardians'' Binary Rifle, or the [[M12 Warthog | * While the reticle is primarily for determining if you are aiming well or not, it can also be used to determine the spray of your weapon.

If the torso of an enemy fully occupies your reticle, you can be sure that an instant kill with one of these weapons is a distinct possibility. This also applies in general, usually the optimum range for a weapon is when the torso or head of your opponent fully occupies your reticle. | ||

If your reticle is not red, the magnetic targeting will not work, making it harder to aim. Weapons like the [[BR55HB battle rifle|battle rifle]] can achieve greater auto-aim range when scoped. | * The color of the reticle can also help you determine if the weapon is in range of the [[Auto-Aim|auto-aim]].
