[QUOTE="Three44s, post: 1602134, member: 43573"] An old timer steered me to 6x back when I was a kid for open country and it has been my staple for coyotes. Mind you range finders were something a ship had back then but one thing that not futzing with a variable power gives you over time is that coyotes can be better judged for ranging if you are not jacking the power around all the time. The medium power gives me less jitters as well. Most of my scopes are variable power 3-9 or 4-12 and my favorite scope that has been used on the majority of coyotes I have killed is a fixed 6x Burris. Variable or not I strive to let them sit on 6 power unless there is a specific need for something else. Now a varmint rig for squirrels etc is another matter. My Liberty M77V 243 wears a 6-18 power Burris. But when it’s coyote game on, the ring goes back to 6x. Three44s [/QUOTE]
