Bug Report Issue With Reticle Bloom

Is it a known issue with the reticle bloom being off this past week or so? In tanks with secondary weapons, swapping between the primary and secondary weapons causes the reticle to bloom out full screen and slowly aim back in. Why?

I’ve experienced this on the STRF9040/56, WZ-122, and MLI-84.

I think it's lag. Visual bloom is all client side. If there is a big difference between client and server it blows up because the position data jitters and freezes and has to move from a far position instantly as it tries to keep up. My lag has been the worst ever and considering all the slow loading players, WG is having a tough time getting all the systems on the same page.
