[QUOTE="bigbull, post: 1937545, member: 74097"] Interesting that there are so many opinions about the period scopes were not available as variables or that the optics were not at par to today's scopes (which in many cases is true) but look at the list in the video, the scopes choices shown are for [U]today's[/U] soldiers and they are either low power fixed or low power variables predominantly. I believe that a consistent sight picture also plays into the fixed power choice. Interesting situation happened to me last year while moose hunting, through a series of events I had an opportunity to take a shot at a moose at long range, range 645 yds, I missed him :( , when packing my rifle I lokked down at my scope and it was still set at 3X, I never felt under powered while taking the shot........just saying! Lesson learned. BB [/QUOTE]
