[QUOTE="Chopperguy, post: 1102503, member: 48608"] Either of your considerations would serve you well. The lower power scopes in a realistic hunting situation will often work better in the situations you describe. I personally have most of my hard core hunting rigs equipped with NF 2.5-10x32 or 42 scopes. Nice to dial down in the thick stuff where I'll not need the use of the reticle for longer shots, plus the ability to use the 10x and reticle for the chance of longer shots makes for a hard to beat real situation hunting package. The illumination is also a great feature. I've used it even on overcast days when an animal steps into the dark shadows at the edge of the heavy cover and the reticle gets pretty hard to see when holding on your target. That plus the occasional early or late shooting opportunity makes the illumination a value added bonus in the field. Good luck with your decision. [/QUOTE]
