RE: Lumizone crosshairs??
To answer the question, when off, the crosshairs are black, although all lit reticle crosshairs are just a bit translucent when off, where the varizone crosshairs would be a darker black. It looks fine in my lumi-zone scope. Really, everything about this scope is fine in my opinion, except the illumination controller. It is a bit touchy causing a quick turn of the knob to not give illumination. It has to be in a detent to illuminate. Between detents, itis off. Also, who needs 11 illumination settings. I think 4 including off would be fine.
