Thread: 223 on deer

70 yards with thermal. Cripes it was hard to get a steady off hand shot. It was dead just near to where it disappeared.

Funny you say that about being hard to hold steady with the digital scope.
I have the same issue with my zulus 3-12 on my 7.62x39 bush hunting. Bloody hard to be steady on freehand shots!
I think the issue is actually input lag of the digital scope. We are trying to correct the reticle to the target but the reticle isnt actually in the position we are seeing due to the lag/delay of the device.

Haven't noticed that but haven't shot off hand with the digital much. That shot was with a thermal. Ive noticed though my heart pounding in my head, my eyes running and the gasping for breath

The thermal is also a digital and will have similar lag.
