[QUOTE="dsculley, post: 1298704, member: 77514"] To each his own. I personally do not want too much magnification. Mirage, magnification of scope/rifle movement, loss of field of view, and too much eye strain. You can hit a 1000 yd target with a 4x scope. You don't have to see the hair, you just have to be able to quarter the target with the reticle. Would I choose a 4x scope for long range work? No. But if that is all that is available it can be done. But then, for most work I would not choose anything above 16x. Like I said, to each his own. Seems today that too many people think what they do/want is the only "right" thing and want to push that on others. It is not right in this format, or any other, to try and demoralize those who don't see things our way. There is nothing wrong with offering alternatives, especially if they are combined with well thought advice. The sarcasm for those who don't see things "my way", however, has no place in polite conversation. Just my thoughts when reading this thread. [/QUOTE]
