[QUOTE="del2les, post: 1575246, member: 9299"] But how many of us shoot at that 1" dot at 100 with a 1x scope? While I do with a few 1x pistol scopes, usually a rifle scope is always at a higher setting for improved viewing and groupings. So if 1" is 1 power, why would one want less at 1,760 (18x)? If mirage or other weather factors are not impeding, I will always go with a high magnification than 1x per moa At LR, I prefer a 1 1/2 to 2x moa magnification and that may depend on the target size. P-dogs and marmots at LR are tiny targets that, for me and many, require quality optics and higher magnification. Personally, that translates into larger targets at longer ranges. YMMV [/QUOTE]
