    Have tried a few "1- somethings" with 24mm objectives and not a fan. Maybe its my eyes, but in bush stalking when you need that low power for very close range you also frequently may be in low light & thus better off with a 36 - 42 mm objective. I've found the Kahles 2-7 x36 was very good and also older Burris "6x" 2-12x42 & great fov. Both come up 4 sale second hand occasionally. If you running a suppressor its odds on at 2x it will encroach on fov.
