May 7, 2010, Newsletter Issue #128: Tips for Success

Tip of the Week

Even the best hunters can benefit from a little advice sometimes. Here are a few tips that may help you become a more successful hunter:

• A variable power scope should be set to its lowest power for fast target acquisition. High powers should be reserved for long range, controlled shots.

• Lens caps provide good protection in foul weather but should be removed when stalking or still shooting to save time in snap shooting situations.

• Take off transparent or tinted covers to avoid image distortion. Optics on a Bushnell rifle scope are recessed to avoid lens contamination when lens covers are removed.

• Using a Bushnell Bore Sighter is recommended after any fall or mishap to assure the zero point of your rifle.

• Storing your rifle and scope overnight in the outdoors will help avoid external fogging of optics. In extreme cold, cycle the action a few times to loosen it up prior to returning to the hunt.
