[QUOTE="Chas1, post: 368565, member: 15738"] Your question will probably get a varying range of answers as power choice is a personal thing. While some will say a 3-9x works fine for them, others will prefer a 4-16x or 5.5-22x. Once I get much beyond 500 yards or so I prefer 12-42x but my eyes aren't what they used to be. Mirage can be a problem with higher x. If your eyes are still pretty good then I would think your thought about 18x would probably work well. IMHO if I were going to go with 14x then I'd just stay with your current 12x. Keep us posted on what you decide and how it works for you. Enjoy. [/QUOTE]
