I have the 5.5-22X50 so it's a little different, and it's marked at 11 power. You'll see the dot instead of a number.

Ranging power is at <span style="text-decoration: underline">22x</span>.

*<span style="font-style: italic">Info taken from pg 1 and pg 17 of the Reticle Information booklet that is supplied with the NXS scope. MIL-DOT information is on page 16-17 of said booklet. The dot at 11x is not the ranging power.</span>
