[QUOTE="Musket_0, post: 18026, member: 1957"] Shopping for scopes to get the most for my money, I have run accross a question. I found 2 scopes that are both 6-24x50. Both are brands well known. #1) FOV is 16' at 6x and 4' at 24x #2) FOV is 46' at 6x and 18' at 24x Why is there such a diference at the same magnification? Or is there more to this than joe shmoe would usualy know. I am looking for a scope for my hunting rifle/target rifle. Here in Northeren Michigan, it is real hard to even find a 300yrd shot. But would like to shoot paper out to 600 or 800yrds on the range for fun. If I used scope #2, wouldn't it be harder to make out the center of a target at that distance than with scope #1?
