[QUOTE="kcebcj, post: 960415, member: 10391"] Used a 3.5-10 Leupold with M1 turrets when I first started shooting long range and a elk at 600 yards was easy to get on. The problem and the reason I upgraded is when doing load development and proving the load could not see the target clear at long range (400 yards ++) so the hold was never good and the results showed that. If you could get a load developed with a more powerful scope and then switch back to a lesser power and still retain the accuracy and the come ups were the same that would be ideal in a lot of circumstances and like I said a elk at 600 yards would be a easy shot with a 10 inch kill zone. Rock Chuck at that range would be another story. So it really depends on what you want the scope to do. [/QUOTE]
