Because at 6x with a 28 (or whatever) mm objective, the exit pupil is only 4.x, so it’s just not capable of letting in as much light, therefore it has limited performance in very dark conditions with the magnification turned all the way up. From a fixed position (a stand or blind) the extra field of view is less important to me because animals are generally moving slowly and often a bit further away compared to how I mainly hunt with this scope. Its not that this scope cant do it, at 3-4x its plenty bright, its just that if that was my main use-case I would be more OK giving up some field of view in order to get a brighter image while being +magnified a little more right at first and last light. No scope is perfect, its just a different ranking of priorities around what I want in a scope for different uses.Why do you say that?
