    Low Light Rifle Scope Testing

    Yes Waterboy, I did use the green Mildot in my testing. The triangle post can be used in various situations. But I find it too large. I like a tiny illuminated dot. And that’s what you get in the Mildot or the standard duplex. And really for me it boils down to this. A good quality 50 -56 mm...

    Low Light Rifle Scope Testing

    Accupoint reticles vary. But to me the Mildot is the way to go. Bold dark reticle that is very daytime visible. And a tiny dot. I personally like green.

    Low Light Rifle Scope Testing

    Thanks for all the input. I did this test a couple weeks ago and basically have summarized giving the high points. As I stated it’s informal and subjective but did answer some of my questions. I didn’t know how to show an image that was being seen by us through a phone. Just not that tech savvy...

    Leica amplus 6 3-18x44

    I have this scope in 2.5-15x50 L4w reticle. Short summary. It’s what Leica describes as their entry into the premium line. It’s on the heavy side (( ounces matter to me) , the optics have good edge sharpness and color rendition.Low light performance is to me very similar to my Leupold VX-6...

    Swarovski EL - Overhyped?

    The EL is fine optic. Is it overhype? Yes and No. It represents a class of binoculars are among the best. And when you get to a certain level of performance you just have a hard time rising above those benchmarks. I sold my EL’s and now am running Zeiss SFL 8x40’s. I wanted a lighter high...
