You should talk to them about this. Maybe your photo optic filter is not working?

I hunt in cold weather frequently and I've never experienced this.

Mine turns dark ( by design) when it's very bright outside so that the pin does not become so bright it distorts the view of the target. However when it's cloudy or dark that filter is clear to allow all available light in.
