I have the NP-R1 on my 5.5-22X50 NXS and a Mil-Dot on my 2.5-10 X32 compact. Both are nice reticles but after using an illuminated reticle that only the center section illuminates I find it better for hunting applications as the illumination doesn't wash out the target as much.
Only the center section of the IHR reticle illuminates. This is why it would be my first choice for a hunting application.
