[QUOTE="MachV, post: 574365, member: 93"] I've used a pair of 16x IORs for years on everything from the 17HMR to the 50BMG. One is currently on the 338Edge and the other one goes between the 8twist 22-250 and the 6-284 bench guns, Both of these units have off centered bases and need the extra travel the 16x offers. Although not my favorite scope they have proven themselves very reliable over the years and have enough travel to get out a long ways....the one on the 50BMG was used to put the fear of god into a few pririe dogs right @ 2200 yards. The two I have have a yellow ting in the glass that tends to gray everything out a little but other than that they have been great scopes. I would not use them on a calling rifle even though they have a very large field of view for 16x.....½ again to twice more than most veribles. Sightron also makes a 16 and 20x fixed scope that might be worth a look and they have 150MOA of travel if I remember right [/QUOTE]
