[QUOTE="RT2506, post: 884685, member: 10178"] From my experience with lighted cross hairs, dots etc. I would not waste my money. When it gets low light enough for them to be any benefit, yes you can see the cross hairs but the glow from the light washes out your intended target. Even on the Zeiss scopes with the little lighted dot turned down as low as it will go it washes out a deer standing out in a open field. I would suggest getting a cross hair like the #8 on the Zeiss scopes, or one of the European style with the heavy thick cross hairs that are about 3/4 the length then come to a fine center. You can see these well even well past legal shooting light. Don't scrimp on a scope. Get a good Leupold, Zeiss or even take a good look at the Meopta. Meopta makes a really good scope. I have a Meopta Meostar 3-12X56 30mm tube that I just love on my 264 Win mag. Leupold probably makes the best scope for the money that has all the bells and whistles for dialing your shots though.
