Plowjockey Posted November 25, 2009 Share Posted November 25, 2009 I have a 12ga rifled slug barrel with the cantilever scope mount. Thinking about a Nikon Slughunter, but not sure if the 3-9x40, or the 1.65-5x36, would be a good overall fit. Other scopes? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoBow Posted November 25, 2009 Share Posted November 25, 2009 If you hunt in any type of thick brushy areas, I'd go with the lower powered scope. You'll appreciate the 1x powered scopes ability to find the deer in the thick stuff. Hardly ever turn my 1.75x6 Leupold over 3 or 4 power. It's nice to have the higher power once in awhile, but when hunting, it's almost always at the lowest setting. The scope will also "gather" more light at the lower power, allowing you to hunt a few minutes longer... Good luck, sounds like a great combo!

Guest bravejone Posted December 3, 2009 Share Posted December 3, 2009 (edited) Hello friends, GRAS-9 was used to take a confirmation of this suspected supernova SN 2009 km discovered by the Catalina Real-Time Transit Survey.I like what I see so far on the capability of this instrument. This was, in fact, my second image. The day before I used it for SN 2009jz.A single 180 second exposure brought out this supernova which is around 18th magntiude.
