May want to look into those lighted reticles. Some people have trouble with them due to a "glare" (for lack of a better term) from the reticle. Some people love them, others, like me, that have highly amplified night vision have trouble with them. The "glare" kind of offsets the aim point. Not to mention, it's just something else to go wrong on the scope. While technology is a wonderful thing sometimes, when hunting, I strongly believe in the K.I.S.S. Theory. Keep It Simple Stupid. The more crap you depend on gives greater odds in something going wrong.
