I do dial at the range and I am comfortable shooting sub moa at 600 yards, however it’s the wind that gets me. Hence I opt for closer shots when out in the field because I feel I can’t ethically kill...

In my experience, I feel animals are more active in the last 5 minutes of daylight. There’s not much point dialling when you can’t see the animal to shoot. However, there isn’t much point shooting at...

FFS! I did not mention tube diameter, lens coatings etc; only comparing sight picture in fading light with scoped all on 10 x. Nit pickers.
