Have you tried the 2-7 out yet?
Only at the range...I put it on a Ruger #1 in .222 because of the generous eye relief, plus, I occasionally shoot pigs with it...and sometimes they get shot at night and I really like the illum crosshairs for that!
I prefer the crosshairs to a dot for night predator hunting cause you often have two red dots ( eyes) bobbing at you through the scope, usually in a red light and one more dot bobbing around can get a tad confusing in a hurry...not so with the crosshairs ..
I'll stick that 3x9 on something and use it this winter on predators...
