[QUOTE="Ian M, post: 13757, member: 25"] Roger, I am using a 20-45 and it is usually set on the lower end of the power range. They also sell a fixed 20 or 25 that might be all a person really needs. Usually in summer mirage prevents going very high with the power. The angled eyepiece is very nice for range work, particularly prone shooting. I prefer a straight one as I use mine for hunting and prefer to point the scope where I am looking. Not sure about the price, I would shop around as deals can be found on most optics if you work at it. When you buy one I suggest a good tripod, we use a couple of different ones depending on what the scope is being used for. Obviously you need a low one for prone shooting and we also use taller camera tripods when the scope is being used back of the firing line. There was a kit from Nikon including two tripods and a carrying case, not sure if it is still available. Good luck. [/QUOTE]
