Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Single Shots What's wrong with today's scope manufacturers?

An interesting observation for whatever it's worth.

I'm far sighted. When I was young I used aperture sights on my rifles and open sights on my handguns. As my eyes aged I went to scopes and thought that was the cat's meow. Now that my eyes have cataracts and have changed yet again aperture sights are starting to look like a better sight for me. When my cataracts are replaced and if all goes well I should have my long distance sight restored not that that sight is all that bad right now.

I've noticed that I can't adjust the scopes to a level of fineness I once did which also includes my spotting scope. Scopes can help a person to see better somewhat but can't make up for poor eyesight. Maybe an aperture sight can't either. Time will tell.
