    In dense woods, I couldn't see bugger all shooting up into trees in shade/end of day/early light with the SimmonsWTC 1.5-5X20s personally, you can see what's what with the Nikon or Bushnells, but that is not unexpected as it's not fair to compare a 20mm objective with a 32mm one, especially when the 32mm scopes are fully multi coated , with superior coating too -

    From my own experience on these anyway -

    Everyones eyes are different, the small WTC is fine to my eyes. What would be good is a Bushnell, Nikon or Vortex 2-7x32 with a mil dot ret.

    Surely the scope manufacturers will cotton on to this soon. I couldn't agree more.

    Not that anyone needs milldots to hunt with an airgun at the short ranges involved, but I'm sure it would make some extra dough for the manufacturers , so they will even if it's just for Mad Milldot itus .......

    Couldn't agree more - I've always been amazed that Simmons hasn't turned out a mil-dot WTC!

    In my eyes the Simmons WTC range was over priced and not all they were cracked up to be, my Bushnell Trophy was brighter than my old WTC 3.5-10x50 and my Legend leaves it for dead, I'm seriously thinking of getting a Nikon next.

    Far too many rifles to list now, all mainly British but the odd pesky foreigner has snuck in
