why is everyone so caught up in high magnification? its been suggested on here countless time to up the mag to 15X. 10x is good to at least 1000yds in a hunting situation and many times a lower bottom magnification is more important during a hunt than a higher upper magnification. I would imagine most folks wanting a 15X do a hell of a lot more paper "hunting" than game animals.
pat, those are damn fine groups from a #3 contour hunting rifle in a real world hunting environment! how does that 123 scenar do on game? I just finished a 6.5x47 and was wondering if it would be suitable. mine is a 20" ultralight tube but I get 2875 from the 123amax.
