ok, so i'm struggling to find a good scope with a decent lit reticle for night hunting .
I have a viper pst 2.5-10x44 gen 1 mil mil , and the illumination pretty much sucqs .. also got a pst 6-24x50 as well and it's pretty much the same ..
i shoot 170 and 300 yards to feeders lit up with either white led lights , or in one instance green led..
Regardless , as the pigs show up , they like to eat in the shadows behind the feeder where it is the darkest .
using the scope with illumination turned off, i usually aim at the low boy feeder where i can see my reticle , than pan right and pull the trigger as the vertical line crossed the neck .. as i can't see the center of the crosshairs itself...
if i turn on illumination, even at the lowest setting , the hog disappears as the reticle is too bright on the lowest setting.
anyone out there with experience on an optic that has a illumination system that actually works at night under artificial light?
thanks in advance.
