## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does this come with a sunshade?**
A: Yes the Golden eagle does come with a sun shade as well as an aperture stop.

**Q: Does this scope have a zero stop**
A: no

**Q: What’s it like in low light? Are crosshairs visible in low light?**
A: How low of light? It's a SFP so the crosshairs are bold no matter the zoom, or light level. It diminishes a bit above 45-50x zoom no matter the light brightness. Zoom out as needed for extra brightness. 20-25x should get you out to 1k even at dusk (depending on what caliber you're shooting). Just remember your drop isnt correct unless you are at 40x

**Q: Will this view out to 4,000 yards or what distance?**
A: It can see to the Moon, what are you trying to see at 4000 yards? I got this so I can see 6.5mm Holes in paper clearly.  It can easily see a 18" steel gong at 1400 yards, probably much further. If you are planning on using for long range shooting, keep in mind that it is second focal plane, so the reticle won't help much unless you want to use both turrets or do a lot of math in your head for windage.
