I used fixed 3 and 4 power scopes for years and putting the magnification aspect aside for a minute , the physical size and dimensions of those scopes were a joy to use/carry/ manoeuvre when out and about.
Some how big scopes ( size not magnification) have sneaked their way onto my rifles , and even then my scopes aren’t that big physically compared to some of the modern offerings that people use .
This may end up being more expensive than I thought because a new purchase may be required

What would be the most physically compact variable scope with a max of 10 power with good glass and performance ?

Swaro Z3 3-10, come with ballistic reticles too if can be found
