ok lads what is the best scope under a lamp set up as having no fun with my sightron s3 6x24x50 is a fixed scope better than variable as its on a 7mm rem mag dont want to be underscoped for the gun your views thanks
just cant see that well at distance fine during the day shoot to very far far away but using deerielight x sercher cant see more than 400yards wondered if a fixed mag would give me better distance and wider view
paul just wanting to spot foxes further out so i can track them then shoot the buggers at 10 yards with my rem mag just love the smell of h1000 in the evening now on to the problem light seams very dim throe the scope even though the x sercher can throe a beam to 800yards scope seams to not let the light pass thro to your eye so at 300yards yes light is good but as you go out image deminishes but beam still just as bright at 800yards as it is at 300 hence what is a good scope under a lamp or is 300yards considered a long shot under a lampmy best advice.... get closer

+1Hi Wraith,
Personally, i consider 400yards Lamping too far out for safety reasons. But that's just me and also due to the lay of the land on my permissions. I know lads that shoot out further than that using a very expensive pvs 14 nightvision sight and a deerlight 800ir ( The Dogs Danglies ).
Am i right in thinking that you have just sold, or are selling, this very set up and are now looking to achieve similar results with a normal scope and lamp????
I think the technical term would be " Pis*ing In The Wind ", but if anyone knows better please correct me as i would love that sort of lamping set up without the cost restrictions of the pvs that i can only dream of owning.

rem mag is on my tikket for vermin fox at distance and red deer during the day rem mag is a stopper on foxes is just as usable as my 243 and noise is the same yes i did say that with t8 on the front its as good if not better than the 243 so when it comes to trickey foxes the big gun comes out to play all my land runs in to each other so miles of land that i have sole permision for with lots of big hills as back stops im in scotland not much biliard table stuff up hearFirst thought is, what are you lamping with a 7MM Rem Mag?
I would say a lower variable would be a better option, something like 3-12x50, I have got a Zeiss Duralyt illuminated and it is great.
Cheers
