Rifle Scopes Dot reticle?

[mikethetiger55]

I'm probably looking for a unicorn but does anyone make a variable power scope with just a dot reticle - nothing else? I'm thinking along the lines of an aimpoint but with high magnification (10+). Don't know why but I would love to have one for hunting.

Some lame 1-4x options I can see but otherwise that would make for some tough mounting... Not mounted level means trouble and I have never had any luck leveling by turret cap, just by the vertical bits of the reticle

some target scopes (Leupold) have a Very thin cross hair with an 1/8 MOA dot

Well maybe you suck. Most people don't have trouble doing so.

I don't know of any with magnification that high.

The Swarovski Z8i 0.75-6X with the D-I reticle has just a red dot, no cross hairs or stadia lines.

The Meopta ZD 1-6X has a reticle that is mostly a red dot

Tell that to Burris before they made rounded at the top turrets lol I sure tried

What was rounded, the top of the turret cap or the top of the turret itself under the cap?

Shit I just immediately moved on to using the reticle and didn't bother but yeah I guess I do suck big ol titties - sorry for dutch-ovening your forum now and then still working my way from hunting to shooting... could mount a scope at 45 degrees and still hit anything in lower MI and taking off those caps was always the first step to losing the caps in the leaves I must have developed an aversion

Leupold used to offer a circle dot reticle in the illuminated VX-3 1.5-5x, but I don't think it was available in higher magnifications and the illumination wasn't Aimpoint bright anyway.

I have a Leupold vxiii 6.5-20x44 with a super fine crosshair a dot. They call it the "target dot". It's not exactly what you're looking for, but the cross is almost non existent to me.

Mueller makes an 8-32 with a dot (they also make a 1-4)
