Thread: illuminated reticles

Illuminated dots like the Leupold Firedot and those found in LVPOs (1-4, 1-6 1-8 etc) are excellent for quick shooting on minimum magnification, the VX5/VX6 2-10/2-12 scopes with the Firedot are excellent short range hunting scopes.

Illumination also works excellent on very fine reticles or FFP reticles.
I have a FFP 2.5-10 scope on a 22 that is un-usable on low magnification in low light or when spot lighting, with illumination on setting 2 or 3 it's excellent on for possum shooting.
