I have hunted boar in Europe at night without the aid of artificial light very successfully with the above glass.

This boar was taken legally in the middle of the night as was the monster in my avatar.

I have half a dozen scopes like that but not illuminated, and I just put a 2-8x42 Duralyt on a crossbow until next summer when it gets swapped for one of the 1.5-6x42s. It doesn't take much light for them to be fully useful all night long. They are by far my favorite scopes for deer hunting here in Minnesota.
