[QUOTE="KurtM, post: 1258886, member: 6064"] Some folks could break a ball bearing in an empty padded room. The one I have has been just fine, although the on-off switch is too easy to activate when you put it in a case or bump into it on the sling. It's battery life seems to be outstanding! The main thing you see in 3-gun is a 1X-1.5X on the low end variable scope, like a 1-4X or a 1.5-8X. That is what drives the upper end power more than anything else. Almost all of them will have some form of day light capable illumination, or a big honkin doughnut or horse shoe in the reticle to aid in close range hosing. you almost never see "red dots" although some of the bigger 3-gun matches and OKCGC are now allowing a dot in Limited which used to be for iron sights only. As for target engagement ranges most all big 3-gun matches will go out to at least 400yards these days with some having targets out to 600, like the recent Rocky Mountain 3-Gun, don't assume that all of them are like the little club match we do at OKCGC.
