As many of you know from my previous posts I have a backyard deer feeder. Unfortunately my feeder attracts all sorts of vermin. The other night I had the gun on the bench therming up creek while I sat in my camp chair watching for movement on my IPhone 6 Plus. After a half hour I noticed a pinky nail sized hot spot yes, pinky NAIL SIZED glow up in the ivy about 85 yards up creek. It bounced in and out of viewability of the Ivy as it's very thick vegetation and about 10"-12" tall. I digitally adjusted from my 50 yard zero to 85 yards in about 3-4 seconds time which is awesome and much better than my BDC turn dial on my Nightforce/IOR's especially in pitch black. That being said, I waited for the next hot appearance and it gave me about a .50 cent sized hot spot so I quickly zoomed to 10X and took the shot with my pre adjusted wind from the South of 3 mph. The shot was released and the wet bag sound reverberated back down to me creekside letting me know the Gun, Scope & my Trigger Finger did their jobs ;o) Truly and awesome scope and the "BEST" for Vermin bar none!
