[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 384991, member: 2736"] If you are going to hunt with it I would recommend something around 4.5x to 6.5x on the low end and 14x to 22x on the high end of power. For targets 1000 yards or more something around 8.5 x to 25x. 15 MOA to 20 MOA basses will work fine and still allow you to zero at 2 or 300 yards. I have a 4.5x14x50 mark 4 on my 50 BMG and it works great for everything. The brand of scope is a personal choice but get the features you want . There is such a thing as to much power under certain conditions (Heavy mirage) that shooting becomes impossible and the ability to turn down the power can save the day. Just my opinion J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
