I have this scope. There is no flare issue. I shot my biggest buck ever with the sun behind him in Wyoming.

I have no idea where you heard this. Somewhere on this forum I mentioned the shot in a thread several years ago.
well buddy you mighta gotten lucky but mine definitely has it but only on 12x is it seen to be troublesome. its juts a washed out looking image kinda like its foggy out. scope is brand new with its first 2 outings i've seen this.
