[QUOTE="brcfo_outdoors, post: 1986909, member: 113623"] As mentioned above, your particular setting, use, and preference will ultimately determine what works for you. For a straight PRS style rifle, I like to go up to about 25x. My custom 6.5CM has a 4.5-27x Vortex and its for steel or two legged targets in a really unlikely scenario. For long range hunting I like to back it down to a 4-20x for easier target acquisition and tracking without giving up my ability to see what I am shooting. I also like a 50mm objective and 30mm tube as a compromise of light transmission and weight on the hunting scope. [/QUOTE]
