[QUOTE="FIGJAM, post: 1542074, member: 71039"] I know field of view has to do with the construction of the optic more than anything, but it also has a direct relationship to magnification. In any decent scope, FOV will be greater at lower magnifications. I think you have to define more than adequate - is it more than adequate to pick out the right elk moving through the trees at 25 yards? Or are you talking about sitting in a stand with a single small whitetail standing there where you have time to find the right chunk of fur to shoot at? 8x at 25 yards is still 8x regardless of the FOV. If we are talking about an elk, a patch of fur is all you will be able to see... [/QUOTE]
