As I get older I find that it is getting harder to see thin scope recitals. My favorite scope now being a Swarovski with 4A Reticle. Big, bold cross hairs. Also I find the thin cross hair are hard to see in the brush and at dawn and dusk when the lighting is low. Your thoughts on this subject?

Recital A formal statement appearing in a legal document such as a deed that is preliminary in nature and provides an explanation of the reasons for the transaction.
The recital in a deed, for example, might indicate the reasons why the owner is selling the property.
In Pleading, a recital is the statement of matter that is introductory to a positive allegation; it begins with the words, "For that whereas …" and is followed by the claim of the party.

The standard duplex in Trijicon Accupoint and Huron 3-9s is pretty thick in the sidebars and the center section is small, 8-8.6 MOA, making them stand out well. Some German 4s suffer from the same issue as many duplexes, a wide center gap that leaves you aiming with essentially a pretty fine crosshair.
Amazon has the reticle details on the Trijicon scopes included with the descriptions, easier to get to than on Trijicon’s site.
Another good one is Tract’s T-Plex.

Post and crossshair. I have a Weaver K 2.5 on my M600 358 for just that. Old gun, old scope.
The older I become the more I am convinced that the voice of honor in a man's heart is the voice of GOD.

Recitals and Rectals (hurt) should be the new title for the Hunting Optics forum. Sorry, couldn't help myself

Old gun, old scope. ^^^^^^ This ^^^^^^ I'm pushing 70 and can still use a standard duplex no problem but the Post/Crosshair is where it's at as far as I'm concerned for whitetails in heavy cover. I have a Marlin 336 in .35 Remington with a Denver Redfield 4X post & crosshair scope and a Remington 760 pump in .35 Remington with a Denver Redfield Widefield 2 & 3/4X with a post & crosshair. Have a Denver Redfield Lo Pro Widefield with the tapered crosshair which I find impossible to see in low light which I sent into Iron Sight Inc. to have rebuilt and resealed. For an additional $15 they will change the reticle to a post & crosshair so I am having them do that too. That scope will go on a Remington 760 in 30-06.

I can still use anything but an ultra fine cross hair, but the German #4 and it's variations are my favorite for low light. An illuminated reticle is an option. In some instances prescription shooting glasses may be in order. I like dots too but any busy or Christmas tree type reticles just doesn't work for me.

Have trouble with the fine tapered crosshair on a Leup MX8-8X. Fine non-tapered doesn't bother, nor does a very small dot. On the other end, my 1934 G&H M-54 has a 2.75x Hensoldt. Post and crosshair. The post is rounded - find vertical stringing very much worse than 20 years ago. A flat post would probably work better.

I like the German no. 1 for a couple of applications, but have settled on the Tract T-Plex for most of my use. The older Conquest had the best plex of any I have used.

Hey, I went to one of those for my niece, one time...... Yeah, and I didn't know scopes could do that kind of thing! The things you learn in the optics forum!
