Do the crosshairs work without illumination?

yes an in my opinion its better with out illumination to much glare with it....
1296921
yes and actually better since the illumination tends to glare out the view when not quite bright daylight. I don't think the illumination helps much, otherwise a good scopoe with easy to see crosshairs.

Yes but you need to use it as a cosight because there is no red dot or cross hair

No, it is a hand-held device. It has no crosshairs or red dot aiming features.

It's not necessary. But it may help if it has a dimming option. It's needs to be on low to be able to see the hog and the crosshairs. Of course my green light didn't work right out of the box. But I did have success with the red anyway.

Yes sir. Also, the brightness of the red dot is adjustable. Just keep pressing the button that turns the reticle on/off to cycle through levels of brightness.

The drawing of the crosshairs in the pix on this particular item that's being commented on is not reflecting the actual look of the crosshairs. The crosshairs go all the way in, mind you and then where the red dot is, there is actually a black dot when the red dot is turned off

It is very usable without batteries in daylight.Go to the Bushnell web site to see what the " cross hairs" look like.

Thank you very much for taking the time to answer my question. My concern was that in bright daylight I would not be able to pick up the front sight once painted. I have a tritium insert so I have no problem under dark conditions or even at night.

You turn off the illumination, the reticle will be black. When you turn the wheel to the red level, the reticle is red, same as the green and blue. Thanks Optics-store

No, It has really low brightness settings so you can use the sight in conjunction with nightvision optics.

I have personally found that the reticle is quite visible in bright sunlight. Except while viewing in the direction of the sun during its decline in the late afternoon/early evening, as is the case with any aiming device. I hope you find this information helpful.

Yes..the battery only allows the illumination of the reticle. Without the battery you have your normal black reticle. Awesome scope. I'm happy with it

No, but the popup flash does a great job. sometimes when shooting objects I add a spot light from the side.

Sure does...the reticle is black and crisp until you select the illumination setting with the knob on the left hand side of the scope.

The reticule is indeed black and functions just like any other scope - illuminated or not. So "yes" is the answer to your question!

There is a rheostat that allows you to dim the crosshairs from bright to off.

No, only works with the light listed due to the offset of the light vs centerline. And that light is very nice, not 5 billion lums so as to blind the shooter.
