Hello,
New to LRH Forum. Searched couldn't find this topic covered. Recently got a platform in 6.5 Creedmoor. I am looking to have this rifle do double duty. Both shooting out to 1000+ and use for hunting larger game between 75 and 300 yards. Looks like a thread said that 6-24 might be too much, but that looks like that person was only trying to use it for hunting only.
I am concerned with the field of view on the 6x but having the extra range on it would be nice for long range. And with the price difference one the Diamondback tactical (FFP) being 50 dollars for these two variants I am leaning towards the 6x-24.
I have heard you want 2X for every 100 yards so if I want to go out to 1000+ should have 20X.
This is my first build.
