Sir, on behalf of vets everywhere, I thank you for offering your place to a fellow vet.

Kahles glass floats my boat.

I bought the same model and caliber last year. I went with a Leupold VX-III 1.5x5x20 with a German #4 reticle. It works for me. Dangerous game shots, especially in Africa where vlood means you pay the trophy fee regardless if you recover the animal, are taken between 20 and 65 yards. If you're...
