ratchers Posted May 1, 2023 Report Share Posted May 1, 2023 I changed my scope recently as I was not completely happy with the last one due to missed shots so I fitted a mtc atom which has a fixed mag of 10, I zeroed it a few days ago at 20 yards as all my squirrel feeding boxes are at approx at that distance. Was out this morning early and did shoot three greys but I did have a problem with the occular lens misting up because of its short eye relief as the heat from my face caued condensation, anybody else had this problem and did you solve it?

Anthony 666 Posted May 1, 2023 Report Share Posted May 1, 2023 I use the MTC SWAT and had the same problem but mainly in the colder months warm air from my breath had it misting up I've took the rubber eye pice off seem to of solved the problem Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wymberley Posted May 1, 2023 Report Share Posted May 1, 2023 If you're sure it's not natural ambient conditions causing it - just like lamping rabbit on a summer's evening - could it be that you're not just shooting but also searching with the scope. Do you have any alternative optics which you could use for that? I've just brought up Anthony's post which was flagged, and yep, get some air circulating.

scarecrow243 Posted May 1, 2023 Report Share Posted May 1, 2023 its your breath on the scope as Anthony said above Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bruno22rf Posted May 4, 2023 Report Share Posted May 4, 2023 Not sure if it's any help but this same problem occurs quite often with Motorcycle Helmets, we used to rub washing up liquid on the lens then wipe it off carefully leaving an invisible coating of soap. I think these days you can buy products that do the same thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Biffo1262 Posted September 15, 2023 Report Share Posted September 15, 2023 The best stuff is sold by optical shops for glasses. A simple wipe with one is all it needs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
