[QUOTE="tuscan, post: 1328863, member: 90621"] Agree with the 10x, but I like the option of a little more. Recently purchased and deployed a March 3-24x42 for a 7mm rem mag that I use for long range hunting. Very light weight and compact (in fact, too short for rings on a long action, so put a rail segment on, losing some of the light weight benefit). The glass is excellent. When shooting steel at 1000 yards, can easily get by with 10x, but prefer going up to 18x and if I do my part right, can keep the steel in view for a quick follow up. But, if hunting, I wouldn't use more than 12x at 1000 to keep FOV more open. [/QUOTE]
