[QUOTE="scottyd2506, post: 674949, member: 19778"] You sounds like a Nightforce salesman, Zero stop, Zero stop, zero stop... It is true I've not shot to 1000 yards, Targets and Aniamals to past 500 yes. I've been doing this for over 25 years, back when shooting an animal at over 200 yards was unethical. in the past 5-6-7 years I've not done much real hunting, more a armchair hunter it seems, so yes you are spot on about me. I am gearing up this year and have much to learn about what is new. I understand that turret rotation can be confusing if ones does not keep a count. Your last paragraph tells me your mainly a paper puncher, and your hunting experienceas you quote is "the voice of opinion" "not experience" Sorry to have to mirror your words back at you, but low light performance is huge where we hunt, sure we have big fields, but deer generally stay by the woods, coyotes also. nice and bright in the field, darker in the woods. perhaps if your viewing a wooded area with your nightforce, from 500 yards, and you see nothing, pack up and go home, you just tell your self you have the best scope on earth and Go home! the guy 100 yards next to you might have that 18 point White tail in the crosshairs of his Sawro or Zeiss that he can just make out that you seen total darkness! one guy has ZERO STOP, the other guy has 250 lbs of MEAT in his freezer. To me Hunting performance is much more important than paper punching only. I would take a 600 yard limit scope that has superior glass to a mediocre glass scope that shoot to over 1000 yards ANYDAY We have our own preferences. [/QUOTE]
