[QUOTE="royinidaho, post: 564017, member: 2011"] [b]Re: 4-16X50 vs. 6-24X50[/b] Differences for my use would be the 4X end will be better at both ends of the day as far as light goes. Also greater field of view at the low end. With identical reticles (fine) and equal glass the 14 is plenty for LRH. Much greater than 14 gets to be a spot of bother when mirage is running hard. But if one is comfortable with mirage, it can be your friend. My favorite scope is an aged Weaver tactical 4.5-14. Great for all light conditions and as far as a 338 RUM will shoot even on 4.5 power.
