It IS good to hear more first-hand about them.

However, ‘you hunt in Alabama, so low light is HUGE’?

It USED TO BE important, until legal ended 30 min after sunset.

Now, any decent 20mm obj LPV will get most past last legal, in almost any light in AL. There’s certainly no ‘need’ for more than 42mm of obj, unless you’re trying to shoot late past 400 on bean fields, or night hunt hogs with a day scope.
