Being an EER optic has nothing to do with low light conditions. You would have the same issue with a "standard" optic in low light conditions as well. Leupold offers a 1.5-5x firedot that would do very well on a scout rifle.

Scouts are not for everyone, but they are an overall useful rig. Money being the same on the Savage and Ruger GSR, I'll take the GSR anyday of the week due to having better mags available.

Novelties are nice to play with but they're not always the best way to put meat on the table.
