I suppose truly that everyone sees things differently. I had a Leupold 2 to 7 x33 Rifleman that I used to use on a 22 to squirrel hunt with. Using the scope I could see to shoot anytime i could see the squirrel. Well before daylight and well after daylight. The Vx1 is supposed to be a brighter scope than the Rifleman . I expect to be able to see a deer with a VX1 just fine. If I can see the deer I suspect I will be able to place the shot. I dont expect a scope to be good enough to say look out into a field and see deer I cant even see with the naked eye ! After all I am not going to be looking around with my rifle unless I am sure It is a deer I am looking at !
As long as a scope will hold zero and allow me to hunt 30 minutes before sunlight and 30 Minutes after sundown (Legal hunting ours in Arkansas)I will be satisfied .
I think that I have enough info both from this thread and my experience with a Rifleman scope to be assured that the VX1 will do that for me.
