Need a small 1X optic with etched and illuminated reticle
I am looking for the smallest 1X optic with an etched and illuminated reticle.
This is for a .22 backpack gun. Want small and lightweight need a simple etched reticle. If I can get an illuminated dot in there as well that would be great.
No possibility for iron sights on this gun so etched reticle is a must.

Primary Arms Cyclops. I don't have this model, but I have a few different Primary Arms optics and all have been great.

I'm looking to get that optic sometime in the future.

I'll second the PA Cyclops. I have two & they are fantastic!

I would recommend the Bushnell Lil P also. It fits the bill for what you are looking for.

All the reticles seem to be quite overkill for a .22 backpack gun.
I guess I could just zero the top of the chevron at 50 yards.

Discontinued and can’t seem to find anyone with some NOS.
Leulold made a Prismatic Hunter that looked pretty good but seems to be the same discontinued with no NOS.

Vortex Spitfire fits the bill minus it not really being small.

I have no personal experience, but I have seen their scopes in many reviews, often for rimfire shooting, and they seem to have a decent reputation.
