im looking for everyones opinions the best lowlight and nighttime hunting scope. over the past couple years ive been doing more and more nighttime hunting for coyotes especially. I ended up buying a nightforce competition 8-32x56 to put on top a sako varmit 204. this scope has very nice glass but I quickly realized 8 power on the low end is way to much as most nighttime shots are less than 300 yards. also on this model scope the WHOLE reticle lights up which I feel is a disadvantage over having just the center dot illuminated in a low light or no light situation. im toying with the idea of an nx8 2.5-20 but the only thing stopping me there is that they don't have a plain duplex reticle. for me in a hunting situation a good old duplex reticle is much easier for getting on an animal over say the nightforce moar as I have 3 scopes with that reticle. I have yet to find the perfect scope for this application whats everyone using? thanks in advance
