I have a LMT MWS with two barrels, one in 308, the other in 6.5 Creed, and I need some glass. I have a line on Kahles but don't know whether to get the 3-12x50 or 6-24x56. Most of my shooting will probably be with the 308 barrel but when shooting the 6.5, I know I'll need the 6-24. Is the 6-24x56 too much glass for a 308?
Thanks for the help.

Works great.
 
if it is a dedicated scope to that rifle and you are using for spotting or seeing your rounds after impact on steel or paper i guess its fine. if it was me id try to save some weight. i think a 3-15 is more than enough. of course that depends on the clarity of glass
 
I think 6-24x is a good mag range, especially for the 6.5 creed. The LMT MWS is a heavy girl, so might as well put some heavy glass on her! haha.
