[QUOTE="tracker12ga, post: 306117, member: 18446"] Me and my bud were out shooting at 400yds this weekend and for the first time I was behind him with the Spotting scope (a P.O.S.). I thought the quality of the scope would not let me see the vapor trails, but that day I tried it anyway. To my surprise, I could not only see the trails very well, the trails at first light looked like white, just like you see behind the jets at high altitude. It was pretty darn cool. The temp was 58*F and 90% humidity in the air at first light. Now, as morning went on the air temp rose and the vapor trails went from white to just mirage disruptions that you could track to the target. My question is, was the atmospheric conditions at first light what caused the white colored vapor trails? At any rate, the trails were neat to see, and I was happy with the performance of my gun too (2.25" groups at 400yds) [/QUOTE]
