[QUOTE="sable tireur, post: 1327834, member: 27307"] I agree with the 10x as a minimum for 1,000 yards, also. I use a standard, straight 10 power just to stay in practice for 'just in case'. There will be compromises for any decision made which has to encompass such a wide range of activities. No one scope will accommodate your needs perfectly and the scabbard could be a problem for anything like this. But given the choice for a reasonably compact long range scope for both hunting and longer range steel, I have switched to these. Actually, I use the RZ1000 in the Zeiss but the 800 would suit you better I think.
