[QUOTE="Bravo 4, post: 1237471, member: 8873"] The 10x would get my vote. I've put 10's of thousands of rounds through one out to 1000 yards. If target were only on the list, or maybe little critters in the bright sunlight, then I would probably recommend the 16x. I had a 16x on my Edge the first year I had it and it SUCKS in any lower light situation due to exit pupil size. It almost cost me a buck that I have on the wall. In early morning light I could see him walking across an open area naked eye, binos, and rangefinder @ 750 yards but couldn't make out crap through the scope. Lucky for me he came out 30 minutes later when the sun was up over the trees. You already have the 10x, why not give it a try on the rifle before you buy. I might even suggest you put the 10x on the .300 and get a 6x for the .223 (depending on what your intended goal is with that rifle). That is if you want to stay with fixed or on a fixed income. If money were the problem then believe it or not there are a few good variable scopes out there in that price range.
