[QUOTE="myshootinstinks, post: 3042706, member: 125170"] Scope magnification? Personally, anything over 15-16x is counterproductive at the range. At high magnification I can't find the darn target, and when I do it messes with my concentration. I shoot at reasonable ranges, <800 yards. When hunting I prefer even less XX, seldom shooting at game with the scope any higher than 6x. Deer and Elk are big and IMO do not require more. I guess I'm missing something because I see scopes on LR rifles that top out at 25 or even 40x. [/QUOTE]
