I have mine mounted and will be shooting it tomorrow. My primary use for this optic/reticle is marksman .22 and prs 22. The 10m parralax and very fine reticle seem perfect for this.
I will say, at first glance, this reticle is very nice.
It is extremely fine in the center and you can barely see the dot when you first look at it. However, it’s also very visible when you have it against a target and/or get used to it. The thicker outer portions of the reticle draw your eye to the center, so I don’t think it will be too much an issue when trying to acquire the reticle quickly while changing targets.
If you do lose the reticle, the illumination is daylight visible and does not overpower or washout.
This is the first reticle I feel I will use the Illumination during daylight. My other optics, I don’t even install the battery. Unfortunately on my 5-25, there are no “offs” between the settings. I would prefer to be able to leave it just before the setting I like and if I need it just make one click and have it on.
The only other thing to consider, a lot of people (myself included) are used to .2 hashes. I can see it being easy to use a 1,3,7,9 has by accident until you learn the reticle.
I’ll report back more this week after using it. I can say so far, if it had a wind tree, I’d probably be replacing a few optics. As of right now, I still prefer the MR4 reticle for centerfire matches.
