Maybe even better glasses. LOL

Seriously, what happened? Did the reticle fade out on you? Maybe that was the problem. I don't wear glasses, maybe I should. I checked the scope in the backyard all the way beyond legal shooting time. Good to go no problem. Close to the end I've never used that particular Meopta but every Meopta I've even seen before would take me to the end of legal shooting time.

Getting close to the end of the season I had a buck walk out in the middle of a green field at 75 yards. It was very cloudy and I couldn't entirely get a good read on him with the scope. Wasn't going to take a chance on a anything less than a 3.5 yo. Grab the Bushnell Legend Ultra HD 8x42 binos and I had about the same picture. Had to let him walk. 90% sure he was a shooter. I changed the scope out for a Zeiss Conquest 56mm to be used for my afternoon to dusk gun. Haven't replaced the binos yet but I definitely will before this season. Learned that there is nothing more important than good glass.


I would have just ground checked him,but I ain't that picky. Must have been the darkest evening in history since you couldn't see him at only 75 yards.

Honestly I've been able to see well enough with any scope I've ever used at 30 min after sunset in a field at close range. It's in the woods at a distance,or over 150 yards in the field that I have trouble with and when I want the best optics possible.


Heck. Maybe I do need glasses !


Picking a scope is very subjective. We all see differently and sometimes we don't even realize how much until we start comparing scopes.
