My deer rifle sports a 1-6x36 Zeiss. Absolutely love it. It’s my do everything rifle. Good for the tight stuff, and plenty for longer shots on deer sized targets.

2.5 for me. I've hunted with lots of low power scopes including 2-7 leupold, 1.75-6 bushnell and now a 2-8 Nikon. Always set it on 2.5 and seems to be perfect for me.

Anything with 4x or less is fine for me in bush. Currently have 2-7x on BA13 308, 3-9x on my main goat gun 223. 4x on my old faithful 308. Never had a problem in tight stuff but I also shoot both...

X3 works fine for me. Shot a pig on the run yesterday in the bush. If you already have the x2 then you don't really have a problem, you can put it on with no extra cost when ever you like.

I've just finished a sub 6 pound 30-30 Contender carbine and put a fixed 2.5x Leupold Ultralight for bush stalking But a 2.5-8 VX3 would be my best pick

My 223 and 270 both have 3-9s on them. 3 is probably a bit high for close tight bush work and 9 can be lacking on wallabies at 300m, but it's what I've got and works for me. I'd like a bit more top...

I'm curious as to what magnification people are using in the tight stuff. My preference would be a 2-7 however my current rifle came with a reasonable quality 3-9 and the more I learn about it the...

Sitting and waiting worked for me. Slept in the sand dunes in my bivvie bag to get a deer that walked the beach daily, just on the crack of dawn. Also check the block over and figure out the major...

Just used Temu for the first time. Tried with a lowish value purchase (tin signs) as a test. 5 days to my RD letter box and free shipping. :thumbsup: I think there was a minimum order 30 buck IIRC.
