[QUOTE="TucsonFX4, post: 2840529, member: 126198"] Searching for a scope for a specific caliber isn’t particularly relevant. Ie. A scope for a 7 rem mag will also be just as practical for a 308, 300wm, 6.5cm, etc. Instead, trying searching for a scope under the conditions/distances you plan to use it. From a bench at paper, rugged steep mountains at less than 300 yards, open plains out to 1000 yds, etc. My quickest insight from what you provided, is I would not be happy with a 5x minimum magnification for hunting. I’ve hunted with a 4x and was unhappy when opportunities presented themselves at less than 100 yards. When I’m at the bench, too much magnification is impossible; in the field, too much magnification is a real problem (can’t shoot what you can’t find in the optic). [/QUOTE]
