Rifle Scopes Schmidt and Bender Reticle

[HOGGHEAD]

I am in the market for a new Schmidt and Bender hunting scope. The scope I am looking at does not come in an illuminated reticle. I am looking for the best low light reticle for hunting deer. I am thinking about #9. The scope I am looking at(straight 8X56) is available in the #7, #8, and #9.

What do you guys think about #9 for low light conditions?? Anyone use one?? Tom.

Re: Schmidt and Bender Reticle

For Hunting at night, I would choose No.4. You see the thick lines best. The circle on No. 9 will confuse you at night.
