Without at least 4x FSAA, the 3D scope reticles are unusable/extremely difficult to read. The graticule lines disappear and reappear as they sway, the same also applies to the range numbers.
SMAA/FXAA smoothens the reticle slightly, but still suffers from the issues mentioned above.

HAMR sight with FSAA 2x (still very poor):

I do not have any problems with that.
All disabled VS SMAA Ultra and AAx2 only a small difference... (with the rectile)
What resolution are you playing on? Try to set it higher, and look at sampling, do you have maybe 80% ? Try 120% or at least 100% :)
Running at: 1920x1080
Sampling: 100%
All other settings: High (with Objects on Very High)
I run 1680*1050
Sampling: 114% (1920*1200)
Settings: High (mostly)
FSAA: x2
PPAA: SMAA Ultra
Aniso Filtering: Ultra
Bloom & Radial Blur: 25
Sharpen Filter: 50
Other PP: 0
Rectile perfectly seeable! (http://puu.sh/aSdy8/dfc8cfbfaa.jpg)
What other PP effect do you have enabled? Because they can effect the rectile! (like depth of field ; bloom)
I appreciate your input CAPTINCAPS, but you're running 2x FSAA. The title is:
"0020161: Scope reticles are unusable without FSAA"
With 2D scopes (such as the PCML reticle) this is not an issue. 3D scopes are susceptible to aliasing.
I also realized that the MRCO reticle does not fully show up without Depth Of Field enabled.
I have mentioned it before, and now I bring you the evidence:
Without FSAA, without PPAA: http://puu.sh/aSksw/899914aa1f.jpg
There is a tiny difference, but still good visible!
Ok CAPTNCAPS, but you're still playing at a different resolution (1680x1050) and super-sampling (114%). For those that play at a standard resolution (1080p), and without super-sampling (100%), the problem exists (as seen by my screenshots).
Note: PP effects (such as Depth of Field) should NOT affect scope reticles.
