[QUOTE="Fiftydriver, post: 67536, member: 10"] Varmint Hunter, I have always found the Weaver 4.5-14 Tactical to be one of the clearest scopes I have ever used. This may just be to my eyes but all my customers say the same thing when they look through them and then generally buy one. Problem is they have been discontinued so I am buying up the ones I find here and there from my distributors. 14x is plenty for big game hunting out to 1000 yards. I have taken chucks at +1000 yards with 15x before. It can be hard to find them laying in the rocks and generally use my 20-60x spotter for finding them and then go to the rifle scope. For big game though, the target is plenty large enough to get a clean hold out to 1000 yards. Actually anything coyote size and larger is very easy to get a clear shot at. The nice thing about the Weaver is that the reticle is on the first focal plane so the reticle stays consistant with the target over the entire power range. This along with its clearity are what make this scope my personal favorite for big game hunting out to 1000 yards. I agree, there is a sheep somewhere that is going to get hammered if I do my part. Good Shooting!! Kirby Allen(50) [/QUOTE]
