[QUOTE="ridgewalker, post: 2780793, member: 55998"] Well, I have gone to a number of high power scopes recently, but in my 70 years of hunting, high power is over rated unless you are varmint hunting. I used a fixed 4x on a 30-06 most of my life taking big game to over 400 yards. Now with 2-12x and 3-15x scopes on a number of my guns I rarely turn up passed 9x. If you only sit in a blind to hunt, the higher powers are fine, but if you do a lot of walking, low power light weight scopes are better IMO. I hunt in Colorado dark timber mostly and the lower the power, the faster the target acquisition. I also like an illuminated dot because my eye is instantly drawn to it. JME&O Enjoy your Tikka! Great choice! [/QUOTE]
