[QUOTE="mdslammer, post: 828840, member: 25638"] Hi Guys, I just took delivery of a Vortex Viper PST 4-16x50mm / EBR-1 MOA. I've been outside checking it out. Glass looks to be clear and bright. Good magnification. I bought this for my CZ 550 Safari .375 H&H. I'm used to a tactical scope and this can be used for both tactical and hunting. My only concern is the reticle. It's very sharp but it's also very thin. I'm somewhat concerned that against a darker background, object etc. the crosshairs maybe somewhat hard to pick out. It does have an illuminated reticle and some of the settings are supposed to be able to be used in daylight. However, I just tired the highest setting for outdoors and it really isn't happening. Am I just nit picking? Does anyone have any experience or own one? If so, are their any problems picking up your target with the fine reticle on this glass? I can't really mount the scope and try it out without forfeiting the option of returning it. Any help/suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. MDslammer [/QUOTE]
