    No light backfill, in fact I was shooting from a covered position, just noticeable when looking at a dark background, no problem, it actually helps to 'highlight' the reticle

    Looked a nice bit of glass when I had a look at it at Bisley, very bright!, one comment I would make is that the yardage markings on the side wheel p/a where a little small to see. Would you agree Charles?......
