They're more like rings, or donuts than circles. This has the advantage of giving 2 aiming points per circle, or centering. I do wish they'd made the sizes different though, that way they could be used as ranging aids as well.

If bulk is a concideration look at the 2~8 also, theres very little difference between 8X & 9X, but a reasonable difference in bulk between the 2 scopes.
