[QUOTE="Rich Coyle, post: 1258790, member: 70559"] yodasheet, Twice in my hunting experience I breathed on the scope during trying to get on a deer. I have been selling all my other scopes and buying the newer Bushnells. They have a really nice 2 1/2-10X40 that has the hydro-phobic lenses. If I was in your place I would try to find a used one for you budget. It is so nice to be in the woods and intentionally breathe on the scope and have it clear off in seconds instead of minutes or having to wipe the lens. Something I hate to do. If you practice dry firing with the scope set on 10X and hunt with it on 2 1/2X it will seem like wide screen TV on the lower setting. Also by practicing on 10X it will force you to hold the rifle correctly for your viewing. Don't forget to turn the scope back to 2 1/2X after every practice session as a matter of habit. [/QUOTE]
