I have also just bought a Hawke scope with illuminated mil dot reticle. The one I have is a 2-7X32 AO IR.

I am pretty nooby to scope information but I presume the 2-7 is the times magnification however I don't know what the X32 part means...

I was told its enough for hunting where I will be taking shots up to 40 yards.

I have to admit though, the red or green illumination is sweet!!
