Out in the field, you need to make sure that you have high-quality gear on you to ensure that your hunt goes smoothly. Whether it’s making sure that you stay warm with thick, durable clothing, or having an adequate blade for when it’s time to dress your kill, the best gear can mean the difference between a successful hunt or an unproductive day in the woods.
Of all the gear you can have, however, I would argue that one of the most important pieces is your rifle scope. As a hunter, vision is probably your best asset, considering that you have to see your target to ensure a proper kill. Today I’ll be showing you some of the best hunting scopes on the market so that you can get your next prey in your crosshairs and not go home empty-handed.

Unfortunately, CVLIFE doesn’t seem to name its scopes differently, so I’ll just refer to this one as the 50mm model. When talking about lens sizes, I like a larger scope since it lets in more light and gives me better vision. Thus, this 50mm model is a marked improvement over the previous 40mm version. However, you don’t get a laser sight on this scope, which may or may not be a bad thing, depending on how much of a badass you want to be.
Other notable features of this unit include a variable zoom range of 6-24X, a multi-coated lens for better clarity overall, and the fact that it comes with rings to mount on a 20mm Weaver Dovetail Rail. Unfortunately, the rings that come with the scope only attach to that rail, so if you have something different (like a Picatinny), then you’ll need to get a different set of rings.

This weapon was typically on a tripod to steady the bouncing that came with automatic fire. One of the more unpredictable attacks came from the Arisaka Bolt-Action Rifle. Rifles were recognized in WWII for their long range and accuracy. This gun could be used with or without a scope. When scoped, range was greatly increased, as the shooter could see farther distances and put a round down range with precision. Though this wasn’t the primary weapon for most of the soldiers, it was favored by snipers for its precision at long ranges.
In purchasing your riflescope combination you must consider the knockdown power, the type of deer you are hunting, and the distance of the longest shot in your area. And of course you will need to purchase ammo for your rifle. Even though you have your rifle, scope, and ammo, you are still not ready to shoot. You will need to bore sight and zero your riflescope combination to 100 yards. The rest of the equipment you will need is camouflage, feeders, calls, and a blind. When picking your camouflage, you will need to get something that is similar to the surrounding area in which you will be hunting. Also, the camouflage will need to be right for your hunting climate, whether you will be hunting in Alaska or in Texas. It is vital to find the perfect place for your feeders and stand. Stand placement is very important; you should place your stand in the center of high traffic areas. This is usually near a water source or a bedding area. Your feeders need to be placed in high traffic areas that are in clear view of where you place your stand and at least 100 yards away. If you decide that you want to use calls or rattles, there are a variety of choices. There are

Try to select an area where the hunting pressure is not too high. Hunting in an area that is overcrowded is much harder. Having to compete for land and deer population will limit your chances to be successful in hunting deer. It is much easier to find a friend with private property. This way you can set up where you want and not have to worry about having a neighbor. Private property is also nice because the deer are not always running scared because the hunting pressure is not so high.

This event represents a decline in Canada’s history due to its bad reputation among Canadian soldiers as an unstable weapon. In the early years of the first world war, tens of thousands of Canadian soldiers carried the Ross rifle into battle– and many hated the weapon for its unreliability in combat. Even though the Ross was an excellent hunting rifle and an exceptional sniper weapon, it wasn't tough enough for the hardships and demands of the Western Front (dirt and mud trenches). For example, during the Battle of the Somme in France, many Canadians realized that the rifles were longer than the Lee-Enfield, a problem in the cramped confines of the trenches. Furthermore, the Ross rifle had a tendency to jam when firing which caught the disapproval
