Cant really disagree with much of what youve stated other than this.

"A cheap scope works well within the limits most hunters shoot. If you need a clearer scope to see under low light conditions chances are its way past legal shooting hours."

You obviously havent hunted SC. One hour before one hour after and if you thing a 32 mm tasco is going to give you what a 50 mm Schmidt and Bender is going to give you, I'd suggest you quit speaking on optics.
