Sig Sauer Whiskey 3
When I planned a rugged whitetail hunt in the thick woods of northern Minnesota, I needed a scope that would keep up with quick shots and shifting weather. I chose the Sig Sauer Whiskey 3 with a 3x optical zoom in the second focal plane, knowing it would provide the balance of precision and simplicity I needed. The low dispersion glass kept my sight picture sharp, even in the dim light filtering through dense trees. Adjustments were intuitive, thanks to the European-style eyepiece, which allowed me to quickly zero in on my target. This scope’s IPX-7 waterproof rating and fogproof performance meant I could rely on it completely, rain or snow. It was a trustworthy companion in the harsh elements.
