    The Kahles has 10mm clicks so easier to work out your adjustments and ... it has genuine 2x magnification at the lowest setting whereas many nominal 2-7x scopes (including a certain brand from the Pacific Northwest) are actually 2.3x to 2.5x at their lowest setting.

    A good shot at close range beats a 'hit" at a longer range.

    Red dot for bush, the ultimate when it's wet, tip off mounts and a scope for when it's dry.
