[QUOTE="budlight, post: 1303384, member: 2939"] Your eyes are not as sharp as they age.... but I tend to do lots of shooting in the 24 - 32 power range. We have ground squirrels that are maybe 1/3 the size of PD's and you need the power to look at them in the 200 to about 400 yard distances if you are even hoping to attain a 75% ratio. I shot a lot of 75 gr match bullets, but the cost gets to you when you can use up 1000 in a few days.
