[QUOTE="Mike 338, post: 1520217, member: 41338"] A 10x could be a reasonable choice for an open country desert or plains rifle however a 6x would likely be more practical and in most cases, plenty of magnification. It just depends on the hunting you do. If your ambush hunting and have a good idea where you'll see game, higher magnification is fine. If you might kick up an animal walking in, you could get a much closer shot and the better field of view on an intermediate magnified scope would be far more practical. There's a very good reason that guys who use a variable power scope, leave it on lower magnification unless they need more. [/QUOTE]
