[QUOTE="orkan, post: 782230, member: 25377"] In daylight, they are useable at 3x. You'll lose them as light diminishes, but its difficult for me to describe where. I've taken a few low-light coyotes with the light tactical... but I have no real way to answer that question other than I've not had a problem in low light. At 3x, things are pretty fine. I'm a fan of this, as it offers a very fine aim point. At 5x, they are VERY useable. The GenIIXR reticle is pretty thin. The GenII Mildot that they offer is a thicker reticle, and is much easier to use on 3x when light starts diminishing. Out here in south dakota the shots are not very close usually... so when I'm hunting and using a 3-15 light tactical... it generally sits on 5x or 6x most of the time. Below are some through-the-scope shots I just took out my office window. The building across the street has a pretty busy mural on it, and is about 40yds away. The human eye picks the reticle up WAY better (in the extreme) than these pictures allow for, but take from them what you may.
