Yes Kev I do, on my 8" Newt.
It's a 4x riflescope...crosshairs are beautifully crisp at infinity focus and
no mentionable image shift that has been described in this post.
(although it seems a member has posted a solution).
4x is a little too low and it's only a 20mm objective so it's a bit
poor for deep sky star fields.
My GSO 12's finder is a breath of fresh air as far as finders go
I love it. It is a perfect field and orientation ( Right angle correct image).
When i swivel the RA it doesn't change the alignment noticeably either.
