[QUOTE="Varmint Hunter, post: 76344, member: 313"] Mach V, My 12x42x56 is a BR version with 1/8th minute clicks. I normally click up as needed but have started working with the reticle for holdover, which proved to be much faster. Are you saying that the IOR 16x has a wider field of view than the NF set on 12x? Since the original poster's rifle was chambered in 338 Lapua, I assumed he would be shooting biggame rather than small vermin. In that case I'd stick with the 10x for shots out to 600yds or so. Optical definition is [b]far[/b] more important than magnification, at least in my opinion. For paper punching I still like lots of magnification. Guess thats why I have all variables.
