Good for astigmatism but… - Vortex Spitfire 1x-AR Prism Scope

James Chen's Review of Vortex Spitfire 1x-AR Prism Scope
The illuminated reticles from the second least bright seeing onward renders the center dot useless. The inner rings brightness drowns out the center dot in both colors.
If vortex can reduce the brightness of tue inner circle somehow, it would fix my issue. But i think due to how thick the inner circle is, it isn't possible to refuce its effect. My astigmatised eyes love the etched prism with no illumination. But once the the illumination is turned on brighter than the lowest setting, it becomes useless. This could be because of my astigmatised eyes seeing the inner circle the way it is. Perhaps with normal eyes it would work out correctly.
The shake awake and over 265 hours of use in brightest setting with dual color and etched prism are features lacking in most of the sights out there. The VIP warranty is an industry leader. I would say if your eyes are not astigmatised, this is an awesome sight. For those with astigmatism, it might work for you or you might see what i see, you just have to try and find out.
Pros:
VIP Warranty
dual color reticle
Prism scope
Shake Awake Feature
Cons:
inner circle on reticle drowns out dot
Best Used for:
shooting
Would Recommend:
No
