[QUOTE="nickbracewell, post: 86754, member: 2692"] JR A group of us has taken a lease on a good lump of forestry about 20 mins outside FW.Fingers and any other parts of my anatomy are crossed for a Sika stag [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] Just returned from Perthshire. You were correct about the weather mate.It rained so hard it made my head hurt [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img].For two days solid. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img] Bagged a very nice Fallow Buck with some decent palmations and a good fallow doe.Saw no Prickets,and only one Roe doe.Plenty of Red Stags on the hill, but out of season [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img] As soon as i get my head together i will get some pics posted. As for my leupold....Well i have to admit it cost me a shot on a Fallow Doe on the edge of dark.I could see her OK with the Zeiss bino`s, but not the scope and therefore was not comfortable with the shot.I am certain had my Meopta been there i would have been fine. To be fair to Leupold,when the designer of the 6.5x20x50 VX111 LRT sat down at his drawing board,he did not have dark,wet,miserable evenings in Perthshire as his performance criteria and i was asking the scope to do something it was not designed to do. NICK. PS... How do you get a Ked from up your nose? [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img] [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img] [/QUOTE]
