[QUOTE="Greyfox, post: 1156856, member: 10291"] I have had this happen numerous times over the years. It's most exaggerated with orange /red hues, particularly prevalent just before the sun dissapears over the horizon. Be particularly careful enough rangeing with your RF. This condition can give misreadings! Choice of optics doesn't help much under these circumstances, IMO. Things to try: -Lower the magnification -Wait the animal out to see if he moves as angle plays a role. -Wait for the suns position to change. Particularly late in the day. -Cup your hand, or hat visor over the scopes objective lens. If all this fails, you have a great excuse, and you will convince yourself that the animal was much better than he really was.:) [/QUOTE]
