[QUOTE="Memberberries, post: 1739726, member: 106647"] I'm trying to get better at reading wind and with my other scopes I have only been able to read vegetation on a regular basis with mirage being limited to the hot days. The Zenith has been out of the safe almost every day and I've been able to see mirage under various conditions as long as the wind was moderate. At home I can shoot a few hundred yards and there is also grass to read but at the range where I can shoot farther they have a wind sock downrange and keep it mowed pretty well with scrub brush on the sides but no grass. Mirage is something that I have been missing in the past and it is the only downrange wind indicator I have at home, the range, and on the hunt with all other factors being limited to two of the three shooting locations. That being said, are people shooting with the nightforce SHV and VX3i LRP able to see and read mirage in similar power ranges on days that aren't really hot? I know that it's almost impossible not to see mirage at 25x but I've not had much consistency at 10x before... [/QUOTE]
