Once your eyes get used to it, there is sufficient light to see rabbits as they show up quite well inthe yellow light.

So the question is, what is the light transmission like on the BSA in low light?. The Tasco is a good scope, and there doesnt seem to be much difference under those conditions between it and a Leupold EFR I have on a .17HMR.

I also wonder about the AGS SWAT 8-32X56. It is a lot more expensive than the BSA (seen one at £269). Wonder of the lens quality is that much better.
Can anyone advise?
There is also a new MTC Viper 8-32X60 coming out any day now!
