[QUOTE="436, post: 1986915, member: 16609"] I think the best magnification (power) for long-range, which we'll call 1k... is 16X in my book and 6X for just all-around hunting up to 600 yards. Obviously, I'm not talking variables because that doesn't seem to be the way the question was structured. I've owned both the older Leupold Ultra 16X-M1 and the Ultra 6X-M3 this one had friction windage and elevation with Military stadia line reticle, not sure why I sold either to this day.... my point is, even in variable scopes with those power settings 6X & 16 X in them I don't find them to be as clear and sharp. Just my 0.02 Cheers. [/QUOTE]
