[QUOTE="DSheetz, post: 2533152, member: 91783"] I like lower power for less mirage . And use sun shades in two inch increments so I can add or subtract for the conditions , yup they screw onto the scope and each other . A light color cover over the barrel instead of the darker color dissipates the heat waves of the barrel natural and created by firing . I learned with fixed power scopes and really tend to like 10 and under . I have a fixed 12 on my 30-06 as I got it for a good price and it was the only fixed power they had at the time I was putting it together . I like to have a wider field of view at distance then higher power scopes afford but that's me we all learn what does and doesn't work for us and sunshades as well as higher power scopes tend to close down the field of view at distances . My 30-06 isn't an out of the box rifle . The walnut stock didn't like the dry climate here and split from the front action screw forward so it got a McMillen stock the action trued and a good Timney trigger set at 3 lbs. . I also am lucky at shooting . [/QUOTE]
