[QUOTE="johngibbs222, post: 2249408, member: 49619"] How do you decide which scope is better at low light than others? I have a zeiss 1.5x6 on my deer rifle and I have absolutely no complaints with it. Before that I had a redfield widefield 3x9 on it and that was ok, too. The only real difference that I can tell is that the zeiss, inside the trees seems clearer to look through but it's probably 30 years younger than the redfield. Rather than spending 1000s of $$$$ on a top end scope, seems to me a thermal imaging scope would be a better bet but I suppose you'd have to swap from high bc pspbt bullets to good ole round nose bullets to be able to take advantage of the clarity in brush. Or am I really on the wrong track and guys are saying they believe s&b more than zeiss or whatever manufacturer's sales blurb or Ron what's his name got more hysterical about brand x so it must be better? Don't get me wrong I enjoy shooting the breeze as much as the next man but since I've given up alcohol I tend not to be influenced by it (the breeze that is). [/QUOTE]
