    How many have a true 1x. Is it more important than a good fitting rifle and scope? I've shot animals on the run with an old 6x40 by winking at them, both eyes open swing onto it shut the left... And...

    I have used a Trijicon 1-8 as my main hunting scope for a couple of years now-I like it a lot. its heavier than the z6 1-6 I had before but the extra power helps, as does being able to dial.

    160409 I had a Vortex Strike Eagle 1-8 on my GSR, they are great scopes for the money.

    A lot of single-shot .22's only lock on the bolt handle which is just screwed into the bolt body. Such actions are quite weak. The Lithgow bolt does have a sturdy base but it is only brazed to the...

    I use a 1.5 to 6x (Nighteater) and find it great. My Brother uses a Vortex spitfire fixed 3x and I have been really impressed with that.

    Have a look at the Swarovski z8 epic glass 42 metre field of view at 100 metres very nice to use and very light 18 oz for a 30mm tube. Watch for one second hand come up now and again for good prices

    In 1-8 you end up quite a heavy optic. Like I don't know any lighter than you Z5. Some alright options in the 1-6 range etc. I have an Atibal XP8 1-8 that's nice but just purchased a VX6 1-6 so it's...

    Nathanfish liked post by Moa Hunter On thread : 1-8 power scopes
    For a long time I used a 4x32 Kahles with very heavy outer reticle cross. Because the magnification is always the same my brain got trained to the image which made it very fast to get on target. What...

    I put a Leupold VX-3i 1.5-5x20mm on my dedicated bush gun. No complaints.

    I suggest you consider a 2.5-8 VX3 for the bush gun. My long range gun wears that Z5

    I run a vx3i 1.5-5 on my bush gun and its great. Super light and quick on target. If I was doing it again I probably go with the 2-7 for little bit more on those longer shots.
