Any scope reguardless of price should show more definition than the human eye in low light situations, and the human eye is what most game departments are considering when talking about legal shooting light. Their are many deer killed in my neck of the woods when it could be called night hunting!
That may be so,but the conservation officers go by the time on the clock,not whether you can see game with the naked eye.
Glad you brought this up. In germany, you could hunt all night for pigs and fox, so light gathering is good. But, I watch the clock, meaning I check the daily sunrise and sunset and go by that for hunting. Some dont, heard em shooting like 15 minutes before, but hey that is them...... but never did not see, so guess my Simmons serve me well
