[QUOTE="MOA Chaser, post: 1039140, member: 84330"] I have heard the same thing concerning higher magnification "fuzziness" on many brands of scopes so it may not be limited to the Vortex brand. I do know that in binoculars it is not always the magnification but the quality of the glass. I would rather sacrifice magnification over clarity and sharpness. I've had good success with the SWFA scopes too. Actually, I'm beginning to like a fixed power (like say 10, 12, or 14) with an AO over a variable power for long range. But then again, that's just my opinion. I have both. I purchased one of the discontinued Zeiss Conquest 4.5x14X50 with target turrets for right around $500 for my Wby Mark V 300. Sighted in dead on at 300 yards and not a problem hunting out to 600 yards. The only downside is that it has a simple duplex reticle. But the deer don't seem to mind. :cool: [/QUOTE]
