This evening after sunset, the new 1X scope was given a look. Twenty minutes after, from a dark dining room in the house, i could throw the rifle up, and sight on various objects from 25 yard, to 65 yard out. About thirty minutes after sunset, it was quite dark, but i think i counted coups on a deer about 55 yard out. It was very hard for me to see where to aim on the deer, but it was quite easy to see the cross hair, whilst inside the dark dining area. It should be mentioned the big window has needed washing for a year now.
