Just to update - I replaced the Accupower 1-4 with a Vortec PST 1-6, decided that was too heavy, and then bought the Accupoint 1-4 w/red triangle that I have been talking myself out of for years.
I zeroed the rifle yesterday in the cold and determined 2 things - the gun does not care about temperature but I do, and I really like the Accupower.
I think the glass was slightly better on my Accupower with its too fine and dim battery powered reticle. I would rather have a bold uber bright reticle that can be dimmed or turned off (during the day) with a twist of the FO cover, the tritium is adequate at night, and its noticeably lighter than the PST II 1-6. I think I understand the limitations of the triangle reticle and I know the TR24 is an OLD design.

P.S. The PST 1-6 will be used on an AR build where the weight will be more acceptable.
