Hubble Telescope NOT NEEDED. You are correct, Sir.
"Why do you ask"?
Too many people spend money they don't have , on things they don't need, to impress people they don't know.

Hubble Telescope NOT NEEDED. You are correct, Sir. You are right. For me the phrase aim small miss small comes to mind. If its far out there I want to see detail up close as much as I can. I agree though that the 12x-15x magnification is more suitable for 500 yards though.
Only accurate rifles are interesting.

93 Confirmed, 360 Unconfirmed with an 8x or 10x including a 2500 meter kill with this 10x Unertl: Hubble Telescope NOT NEEDED. I'm in agreement! A 2-7X36 is my favorite size scope but I rarely shoot over 100 yards. I hunts woods 99% of the time and I've only killed deer around 400 yards in 20 years. The last 30 deer I've killed have been under 100 yards, maybe under 50 yards for most.

2-10 for woods and fields. 2x will let you see way later than you should be shooting.
3-12 for general bean field or cutover, maybe a 4-12.
5-20 for long range, 500+
These are my guidelines and what works for me. YMMV

I've got a 3-15 and to me it's perfect. You can see plenty well at 5-600 yards and at the same time have low enough power for low light
