[QUOTE="swampratt, post: 2131110, member: 15054"] 3-9x40 is plenty for many rifles. I hunted many years with a fixed 4power scope on my 30-30 a redfield widefield took many deer with it one past 300 yards and one nice buck at 217 large paces... The highest i have had to crank up my scope while hunting deer on my 30-06 was 10 power 300+ yards shooting through a 1foot square patch of brush to hit the deer in the neck. With that said the scope of choice for me is the centerpoint 4-16x40 with AO and focus.. At 70 bucks or so it is a good deal...holds zero on both my 308 and 30-06 and has for a few years. These will handle recoil from bb/ pellet rifles also..as that is what i think they were first intended for. Recoil has been tested on larger guns... What i really like is the AO and the fact that the glass is very clear and mildot. Sold my buckmaster because this was just as clear and has finer crosshairs for tighter groups .. Would be right at home on a .22 or a 30-30..kind of big to be installing on a 30-30 might look funny [/QUOTE]
