Can anyone touch on the improvements between the VCOG 1-6x vs the VCOG 1-8x? My main point of contention is the brightness settings. The 1-8x has more settings but, is the highest setting on the 1-8 the same brightness level as the highest setting on the 1-6?

Anyone who has experience with one or both of the optics please guide me in the right direction. I'm looking to purchase one or the other for my 12.5" do it all, go to "pistol". I've decided on the VCOG because of the robustness of the scope and the AA battery life among other reasons. Also, I'd love to see some more pictures of the mil/mrad reticles for both if anyone has some handy.

Any help will be much appreciated.
