Advice on New Hunting Scope

[SDHNTR]

If March ditched the hare brained idea of big zoom in a hunting scope and made that same scope body with a 4 or 5x erector, it’s probably all I would own. High zoom is a gimmick, IMO.

I have noticed that with my mom and sister they can't find animals or targets well when the scope is cranked up so we have to back the power down for them and then turn it up when they find it. I appreciate the explanation and all makes good sense.

Now combine that with recoil and a high-pressure situation. It’s a bad recipe.

“Nelson from Seekins he mentioned to stay away from a NF NX8 as in his opinion they are junk. He mentioned the vortex lht is a great scope as well as the leupold mark 5.”

That might be the most butt backwards thing I’ve read in awhile. Nelson from seekins needs to explain that statement

I think he meant Nelson from the Simpsons!

Just another opinion here, but I strongly disagree. I owned one for two years. Tried to like it. Never could. There was always some significant compromise optically, which is exactly what happens when you cram that much zoom into that short tube. The big NX8 is twice the scope, less money and far more user-friendly.

Commie!

I have good luck with the LHT 4.5-22, and I’d say it’s one of my favorite hunting scopes. I shot several NRL Hunter matches with it, took it to missouri, Colorado, and Idaho hunting. It rode on atvs and my Kifaru gun bearer for many miles. Never had a zero issue or tracking issue with it. FOV is a bit narrow though

Ditto, 8x plus erectors are dumb
