On the specs sheet included it says the Reticle "Glass reticle etched or photo engraved" Well which is it ? One thing for sure I've never looked through better optics. I feel like 10x on this scope is like 20x on any of my Bushnell elites. Tomorrow will mount it and take it up to the range. I was told by Scott at liberty optics this is the best one IOR makes. So far I'm a happy camper
