[QUOTE="Cberndt, post: 2768946, member: 65015"] I hunt with fixed power but that’s not the discussion. I think too much scope is an erector ratio that’s too high. In most cases anything over 5 is too much for our current technology to give a good view on both ends of the spectrum. A 5-25 or 7-35 or 4-20 almost always does a good job without people using words like “tunneling” etc. there are some 6x-8x erectors that do ok, just not that many. I doubt I answered your question but I think when people want too much from one scope is when it becomes too much. A 3-15 is almost always better glass than a 3-18, etc. [/QUOTE]
