[QUOTE="ol mike, post: 141872, member: 4683"] Douglas , The question you ask has puzzled me before and might puzzle me again but here's my thoughts. You've stated 'longrange rifle' -so i know shots pop up where alot of magnification is a henderence -but how often will you need a 1.8x level of magnification? A 10x scope will not be enough magnification when you are doing longerange load work and longrange target shooting. A 5.5 x 22 ,6 x 24 etc. would be my choice b/c i have seen very few shots that could not be made due to too much magnification at the bottom -4x ,5.5x ,6x. This is only an opinion of coarse -ain't trying to tell you your business. I'm aware a 10x is plenty of mag- for a longrange shot on an elk but having 20x ,22 or 24x isn't a bad thing in my eyes. I've heard many good things about US optics but no hands on expierence -sorry. Best of luck to you -Mike [/QUOTE]
