I've got two of them, both with heavy duplexes: One on a Model 70 Classic Stainless Featherweight in .308 Win. It's my go-to rifle for foul weather. The other is on my T/C Omega in-line .50 cal muzzleloader.
Haven't had a second's trouble with either. The .308 has been shot quite a lot. If you practice (there's that dirty word again), you can reliably make 300yd-plus shots with just 6x with it.
I've got the 2.5-8x36 with B&C reticle (on a Ruger #1 AH in .25-06) and like it a lot too, but I wouldn't say more than the 1.75-6x32's.
Bring enough gun and know how to use it.
Know that it is not the knowing, nor the talking, nor the reading man, but the doing man, that at last will be found the happiest man. - Thomas Brooks (1608-1680)
