[QUOTE="MontanaMarine, post: 1015366, member: 268"] You might be surprised at the 12X. The furthest I've tried to shoot it is about 2000 yards. I was unable to see any splash from the 30-06 load (just too far), but no trouble seeing and bisecting a target that was no more than .5 moa in size with the 12X magnification, and fine reticle. I went from a Leupold MK4 16X, to the SWFA 12X. I prefer the 12X. The eye-relief is much easier to work with, and the larger FOV is very easy to like. Brightness and resolution seem better too with the lower power and slightly bigger objective lens (40 vs 42mm). I don't feel like the reduction in magnification was a loss at all. [/QUOTE]
