[QUOTE="redneckdan, post: 1776355, member: 8932"] Sticking to what I have experience with, I would choose the fixed 10x or 12x SWFA. 6x isnt quite enough magnification, I have one on a ruger predator .308 for 400 and under and it works great. I have a 16x on a .338L and a 20x on a .223 12FV. The 16x clarity is okay the 20x is meh. Does the job but I dont really like it. I have a 12x on a 700 LR in .25-06 and it works great. They hold up well. The 16x spent several summer/fall seasons bombing around on a four wheeler in the big horns. It's on its 2nd lapua barrel. Not real pretty any more but dials and holds zero. The 6x has been used and abused. It's a general hunting/range rifle. Bounced around in the jeep, fallen off the range bench. It doesnt have a dedicated hard case so it goes in a soft case or loose in the jeep. [/QUOTE]
