[QUOTE="Bravo 4, post: 1559148, member: 8873"] Not a big fan of high magnification on my hunting rifles, or on target rifles for that matter. Largest I’ve owned was an 8-32x56 that was on a .408 Cheytac. Got rid of it, even though I’d shot that rifle out past 2,000 yards on several occasions. Highest I have now is a 5.5-22x50 that usually sits on my .375 Snipetac, but for hunting this year it was changed to a scope that maxes at 15x. Had elk in it at over 1600 yards and felt it sufficient, deer may have been a different story. [/QUOTE]
