[QUOTE="Tikkamike, post: 794679, member: 22242"] I have no problems with max magnification at all. I am saying its not very useable... yeah you can use 20x at 100 yards easy enough. but you cant use 20x at last light. there are times especially on an overcast evening where last light is quite dark and your 4.5 power is VERY handy. most animals are killed in the first and last hours of shooting light. id much rather be able to see them when they are most active than have a 6.5-20x because itll inhibit me as a hunter. You can be just effective at long range with a 14x and you can a 20x... the scope doesnt make your target any bigger... just looks that way. but you cant shoot what you cant see... I have a 6.5-20x on my lapua and like it and have had no issues with it in anyway but when it comes down to playing for keeps I am going with a scope that has me covered on both ends [/QUOTE]
