I recently acquired a 6x with Mil Dot and would send it your way for a side by side with the 6x Mil-Quad. That said, I have a 3-9 MQ coming so I could compare those. Just like you did, for sighting utility in low light.
Any thoughts?
I've been looking at the specs comparing the two (mil dot vs mil-quad). It appears as if the there may be a slight advantage to the mil-quad looking at the size specs. I don't think there is anything I'm doing in my backyard that would justify a cross country round trip for your mil-dot 6x42. It will be interesting to hear you thoughts comparing the 3-9x42 reticle to the 6x42 mil dot. While the 6x42 mil-quad is definitely a fine (thin) reticle, I believe it will prove to be sufficiently useful for my needs. Shooting it today at the range really made me appreciate the precision it was capable of.
