I’ve gone right the opposite direction. My favorite rifle now is a short 7mm08 with a 1.25x4 VXR Leupold. 95% of the time I hunt on 1.25x. I’ve shot 4inch steel out to 250 yards with it on 4x.

Imo field of view and quick target acquisition is way more important than counting the hairs on the shoulder before I shoot.


Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani?
