[QUOTE="Rich Coyle, post: 1335135, member: 70559"] Just a heads up on the Minox. I bought a 5-25x[B]56[/B] thinking it would smoke my Bushnell 6500 4 1/2-30X50 in low light. But first I compared it on the military optics chart. The only magnification setting it was any good was on 25X. All the rest of the settings needed at least 3 power higher setting to see the same thing as the other. My low light test is to compare them on 13" wide deer antlers in the woods 131 yards away. The moment I would not shoot at the deer because I can't absolutely see the second tine I mark the time. This scope was a joke. It didn't do any better than the [B]50[/B]mm 6500, z5 5-25X[B]52[/B], or Leupold VX-6 4-24X[B]52[/B] on the low light test. Despite paying a restocking fee I returned it. While I'm at it I should include the Zeiss Conquest HD 5-26X50. It went down 12 minutes before the others did. [/QUOTE]
