Practically Shooting

Scope Reticles?

That website has a great comparison but it doesn't tell all. I have a Bausch Lomb Elite on a rifle that has a target dot reticle. It's really precise for target and varmint shooting in good light. But both the crosshairs and dot will washout in low light. It's really hard to use in less than good light.

Just something to keep in mind if you're buying online. Take the scope and sight through it in typical conditions before you mount it to make sure it's going to work for the application. Most vendors won't allow returns once a scope has been mounted.

Had the privilege of looking through a Schmitt&Bender the other day. Had a German #1 with a sharp point on the upright. It would be superb on moving game, or low light, and the owner (guy has over a thousand guns, consults for Hornady!) says it's amazingly accurate using the pointy upright. Just didn't know what to call it.
