The SS1-4 is an EXCELLENT deer hunting scope, glass is very good, adjustments are true, tough as an anvil, FAST acquisition (one of my primary requirements). Truthfullly, it is good for as far as you might want to shoot AND has the close range capability. The dot is not going to cover too much… I have a 1-6 and truly wish I had gone with 1-4… have used a 1-4 for hunting. The 1-4 would fit more of my hunting scenarios and still meet my primary defense criteria. Eye relief is excellent, illumination is designed for combat, which means it is adjustable to your needs, virtually no tunneling, daylight… certainly not going to be an issue.

To me, there is no better hunting scope than a great combat scope… the SS 1-4 IS…
Do it… you won't be sorry. It will serve you better than a fixed 4x. Technology and engineering have come a long way since "fixed" was the toughest you could get.
(and I"m a fixed 4x aficionado)
