... the paradigm has certainly shifted to bigger magnification scopes over the years ... probably more for marketing reasons than practical need in the hunting fields ... many put these big long culvert pipes on top of their 30-30s & .308s to go deer hunting ... I do most of my hunting with a Leupold 2-7x28 ultra light with big game usually taken from 25 to 400 yds ... call me old fashion

Yeah, it seems to habe gone that way. Although, I've certainly seen more and more folks go back to the more traditional style hunting scopes. Thanks for watching!

what scope will you recommend for short distance shots, but still able to dial it for 400-500 yards shots? I have been looking at the Nightforce NX8 2.5-20X50 but I'm still looking for something similar besides the Leupold Mark V.

Hey there! A really good option foe that is the Tract 2.5-15x44...excellent scope, as we as the Maven RS5 or RS 3.2..both work well for both shorter ranges as well as super long range with their respective 5-30x50 and 4-24x50 setups. The new Maven RS1.2 also looks like a great option at 2.5-15x44. The Athlon Ares is another good option if the budget is a little tighter. Just depends on if you want a FFP or SFP scope. Hope that helps and thanks for watching!

How do you like the Tract for hunting? Looks like an awesome scope.

The Tract is a great scope. Very well built, fantastic optics and nice locking windage and elevation turrets. It's a little on the heavier side due to the extra lenses they put in for the excellent optical performance. I wish they had other reticle options too, but I imagine they will down the road. My son took his deer a couple weeks ago with that scope and loves it! My main "complaint" on it is the weight, but fantastic optics because of the extra lenses. Tradeoffs! Thanks for watching!
