Maybe it's just me, but does anyone think that the reticle is a bit too thin when you're sighting on a dark object? A couple weeks ago, I was shooting at a darker target at about 200 yards and had a hard time picking up the center of the crosshair. I had my Leupold 8.5-25x50 M1 MKIV and Vari X -III there and had no similar problems, regardless of magnification. This wasn't the first time I had problems with this scope either.
