Re: Does anybody really use there Illumated retica
Better to have and not need. All my centerfire optics have lighting. But I RARELY need them.
All my centerfire optics are subject to hunting use, and about 6 years ago (before I got into high end optics) I had a sickening incident. Had a shooter buck come out at the end of shooting light (at a minimum), I had already tied my drop rope to my rifle to descend, and I could not make out my reticle on the buck. Could see the animal easily, but not my crosshairs. It was tough, but I did the right thing and passed on the shot.
Not ever again.
