    If you are on a tight budget go for the Leupold 1-4x20 or the 1.5-5 if you have more cash both are 1" tubes I prefer the 1.5-5 it has better optics get the German #4 reticule if you can, My current...

    I'm using a 1-4x20 on my lever rifle. have previously used a 2-8x32. aim was bush shooting moving targets and goat or larger game out to 300 mtr. I would love a good quality euro type 1-6 or...

    Either would be fine however it's good to have the x1 option for up close. X4 power is more than enough for 200m.

    I have a 1-4x20 on one rifle, a 2-7x33 on another (rifle had a fixed power 2.5x20 until earlier this year), a 3-9x40 on another and a 3-9x32 on another. For a general all rounder I would go for the...

    I really really like the Leupold VX6 2-12 with a firedot reticle, works very well close range, the firedot is very easy to pick up. 12x magnification may be a bit wasted if you only hunt 0-200m,...

    I have a 2-12 on my "do all" 243 that works great usually i dont take it to 2 power. I leave it on 3 or 4 Honestly if you have a 3-9 on there at the moment you will gain very little going to 2...

    I use a Weaver 3x, 2 Weaver 2.5x, and 2 Kahles 1.5-6. All are excellent scopes, particularly the Kahles. But have shot to 300 on bunnies with the Weavers, and 600 on gongs. You can still shoot a long...

    1-4 can be used for shooting both eyes open which can be an advantage on a moving target. I found on my 223 baikal a red dot with a 2 moa dot was fine out to 200 on goats. Its gone now and a 762x39...

    The first thing I think of when someone mentions low power scope is a fixed power 2 , 3 or 4 power scope , not a variable. I shot a lot of things for a lot of years with a fixed 4 power leupold...
