Dead-Eyed Duck Posted March 25, 2006 Report Share Posted March 25, 2006 Main problem with lamping in the rain is with getting water on the scope lens. It is not recommended to persistently clean a wet lens, as you may well end up with removing some of the coating on the lens - as this imparts many of the optical qualities of the scope. Also, raindrops on the lens of a scope will affect the optics. Don Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Axe Posted April 7, 2006 Report Share Posted April 7, 2006 I have never had a problem but I will say this. You do get varying changes between permissions. The only way to truly answer your question is by getting out there and seeing for yourself. In general I find that although there seems to be a decline in activity, tha rabbits tend to stay still more and keep the heads down. So although it may seem quiet, you'll find quite a few out there and possibly easier to stalk and hit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
