[QUOTE="remingtonman_25_06, post: 117880, member: 1403"] I really like Leupolds 6-18x40 target/fine duplex. I think 6x is low enough for close situations, and 18x is plenty for 1k+. I usually find myself on 18x no matter how far of a shot it is, I like to see. I agree that much above 20-25x and you start to lose some brightness. I myself like a scope to be crisp and clear all the way around the edges on its highest power, if the scope wont do that, I dont want it on my rifle. I think a 6.5-20 would be very nice to have as well. I hunt coyotes, muleys, elk, and black bears that require shots to be taken usually over 250-300 yards, close shots rarely happen for me, simply because of the terrain I hunt. I dont think I"ll ever put a 3-9 on a big game rifle. Just my opinion. [/QUOTE]
