Didn’t realize the thread was 2 years old hahaha.I ended up buying two NX8's (with Mil-XT reticle because that's what was available) and love them. I don't personally have any issues with the reticle for my style of hunting and shooting. I do prefer the Mil-C reticle since I don't use the tree, but it doesn't really bother me either.
All I would change on the Mil-C is to bring the thick parts of the reticle in to start at 5 MIL for use when fully zoomed out. With that said a quick press of the illumination button makes the reticle very visible for low-light, close-up situations where you would want to be zoomed all the way out.

Yeah I wouldn’t be devastated if I had 4-32 Mil C on all my rifles. I just didn’t love the reticle and continued searching for better options.
