   while your out on farm...screw scope up to 9 power and measure a fence battern in reticle..then pace it out....... instant rangefinder if deer is near fence LOL.

   There are some good ballistic programs out there to help you. Swarovski has an excellent one on their website for use with their scopes. Another option (which I am now using) is Strelok Pro which is...

   I'll join in with everyone else in saying a 4.5-14 Leupold is not the answer. I've got one on my .223 and although I don't mind it for open country the eyebox and field of view are both lacking for...

   A 4-12 Z3 Swaro is the scope for you. Will be a great scope for your whole life and only needs to get two extra deer over a poorer scope and its paid for itself ( and it will get you a lot more than...

   I went through the same process and hated the VX-3i 4.5-14x40. Field of view was far too narrow and the eye relief was unforgiving, plus as others have said, 4.5x was too much for the bush. My VX-1...

    my Vixen 2.5-15x50 scope covers all those scenarios and is an excellent low-light scope with a wide-angle view @2.5 perfect for bush hunting, it also has an illuminated reticle. value for money...

    Maybe a one of these would be of interest to you with a max magnification range of 12-15 power but low enough magnification for bush hunting too. - Vixen V1 3-12x44 - Burris Signature HD 3-15x44...

    I have owned a Leupold 4.5-14x and the fov on 4.5x is not good. Wouldn’t recommend it for bush stalking.

    I'm with camenzie - I would stick with what you have, or maybe an upgrade to a better scope with the same mag range. I had no trouble lining up a small sika yearling at 420m right on dark last...

    I find that 3x is okay in the bush and finding close animals in the scope hasn't been an issue. For me only being able to go down to 4.5x in the bush wouldn't be ideal. The extra 5x at the longer...
