Looking at scopes

[Eric Johanen]

Confirmed this weekend at the Lodi Creedmoor...I can no longer see a defined bull at 1000 yards! Did not break 50 on both days. Low score for 900 on Saturday due to not enough light on the face of the target. 76 posted for Sunday as the light was brighter and I could see the bull. 800 on Sunday I posted my best score to date at that range 85-1X. I could see a nice clear bull. My eye's now require a bright target face for a well defined bull. (rear is opened to the max available). Will have to go for glass to see in the future. I am being very, verrrrry good in hopes that Santa brings me a nice gift for Christmas. Come Spring I'll be learning to properly use and adjust a scope for long range shooting. Steel matches I can still see the targets to 600 and will continue to use irons for those matches.
