[QUOTE="lerch, post: 117876, member: 3115"] anything with a top power from 14-20 power should get the job done, much more and you lose brightness. I was looking at junk cars between 3-4 miles away with my 42x NF yesterday and while it was amazing to see that far you could see the brightness fad at that high of power. For hunting I think the more important thing is a good low end on your scope. if you are stuck at 10x power and a buck comes out at 30yds you are gonna have a problem. i think that 6x is the max for a low end in a hunting scope IMOP. My opinion on the cream of the crop for long range hunting rifle scopes would be the leup 4-14x50 and NF 3.5-15x50 take it easy steve [/QUOTE]
