What is the Best Scope for Hunting? (And Why Almost Everyone Chooses Wrong)

What is the best scope for hunting? For nearly every big game hunter, a 1-6X or 1-8X LPVO — and if your first reaction is “I need more magnification,” this article is written for you.

Don’t Buy Garmin Xero X1i Before Reading This Review and List of Problems

Should you buy a Garmin Xero X1i? Absolutely not. A fixed 3.5X magnification on a weapon used at 22 yards, a field-of-view of just 6.5 feet at 25 yards, a $1,400 price tag, a rangefinder that can’t be removed for state law compliance, and a mount that sits too high and won’t take standard rings.

WARNING:

You are attempting to purchase a Sightlok RF-1 mount with no mounting accessories. If you do so, you will only be able to mount it using some non-standard route like bolting it to your MLOK handguard, buying a clamp from a 3rd party, or using it with a tripod. Are you sure you want to do this?
