How many of you use a 1-4x or 1-6x scope or something like it regularly? I think I generally have too much scope. Reason being, is I get quite a few closer shots. Had a close on last week on a walking deer and with the 4-12x, I struggled finding the deer in the scope. I’d like to hear from those that like these scopes and why. Thanks.
Learn to mount the gun correctly. Both eyes on the target, move the gun into your field of view. On 12X you would be on the deer even.
That said I see nothing much wrong with low power. Though in thick stuff I actually like a bit more so I can see where the vines etc... are that have screwed me a few times running red dots....
1-4 Nikon about 5 years old... it was purported to hold up to mag power. It sits on my brown bear guide gun. 458 win mag. So far so good.
