RE: What's The BEST Model Light Gathering Scope?
A personal friend of mine worked at Redfield in Denver for years, before they closed down back in the 90's. Several times she commented on American shooter's obsession with variable power scopes. From an optical standpoint, the fixed power scope has less glass in it and therefore transmits more light -and has a lot less to go wrong with it as well. But the variables sell, so the scope companies provide us with what we think we want . . .
