[QUOTE="Nate Haler, post: 17158, member: 315"] Mag range should be fine, esp. when you consider the 'standard' hunting scope is 4x. For closer in shots, maybe at moving targets (which I only recommend only if the quarry is wounded or if you are starving), you can dial down to 5.5, which should be fine unless you are hunting in heavy brush, real close. For the long shots, dial up and know your zeroes and do your business. I think a 4-16 scope is just about all-around perfect, so the 5.5-15 is right in there. However, Nikon also makes a 4-12. Problem with it is that no target knobs, just the typical coin-slot adjustments... [/QUOTE]
