[QUOTE="el matador, post: 1327622, member: 12193"] 1x per 100 yards is all you need for big game. I like around 16x on my hunting scopes because it gives a bit more detail on the long range shots and its nicer for shooting 200 yard groups on paper. With 24x the field of view is so narrow that its hard to find your target in the scope. A 4-16 or 3-18 is about ideal for me. If I was really trying to save weight I'd look hard at the Leupold 2-12x VX-6. The glass on these scopes is amazing so you can get by with less magnification. [/QUOTE]
