Robocop1051 Posted June 27, 2012 Report Share Posted June 27, 2012 If that one isn't expensive enough for you, try finding the 1-6x version Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unforgiven Posted June 28, 2012 Report Share Posted June 28, 2012 I can't wrap my head around low power factor and great amount of distance.How does this compare to nightforce that for distance has a larger magnification. <dontknow> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

unforgiven Posted June 28, 2012 Report Share Posted June 28, 2012 But even with the reticle brother greg,how do you use it to it's greatest potential if you don't have the power to see distant target. <dontknow> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

planeflyer21 Posted July 2, 2012 Report Share Posted July 2, 2012 Everyone gets sucked into the "Greater Power" myth, regardless if it is magnification on scopes or powder capacity in a cartridge case or CCs/torque on a dirtbike.Early sniper scopes were low powered 2x, 3x, and 4x. A sniper with a M1D Garand would KILL to have a 4x scope with the quality of optics that anyone can buy these days.As to being able to see the target, lower power gives the shooter a bigger FOV. Unless you are scanning ant holes for someone in a Ghillie suit at 16-24x magnification, 4x does qute well...give it a try.The above are a couple of reasons why I put a 2-7x32mm on the Freedom Machine.Jon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
