Anyway it has only ever had a Tasco 3-9x40 for most of its life. Didn’t have much choice back in the mid seventies where I came from until it got here to NZ and found it was a bit lacking for the long shots so has been left in the safe unless going in the bush or where quick close shots are needed. But then I had a look through the Nikko Panamax 3-9 and man what a difference in field of view. So that’s what it wears now and yes I know it’s not a Leopold etc but for the number of times I use it I haven’t been let down. Not sure if they still make it

The jap made Nikko Stirling gold crown 3x9x40 has one of the best fields of view on 3 X of any scope I've seen. Compared by counting fence pails at thirty yards is great way to see just how wide you can see.
