Not familiar with it but it sounds like the scope is designed to allow you rangefind distance based on the commorn size of an animal say for example a deer brisket to back bone is about 18 inches where an elk is about 24 inches. Once you know what animal you are hunting --- to estimate the distance to target you bracket the animal and look to see what the marks tell you the distance is. It should show 2 representing 200 yds and 3 representing 300 yds and so forth, probably some mark that lines up with the scope power adjustment ring.
