I have an SWFA 1-6 HD on a 375 H&H. Really like the reticle for the purposes you stated. On 2x it's fast like a large aperture peep; on 6x the outer circle goes away and leaves the MQ, which is great for further off shots. It is lit. It has so far been very rugged.

I have it in Leupold QD mounts on Warne Maxima bases. Nice and low over the barrel. I have the sights zeroed.
