You know maybe I am missing something, not sure. I've tried an fx3, didn't hate it by any means.
You make a valid point regarding 10x, don't need it and you're right about that however I don't mind the extra power off the bench. This year was the first time I used all the magnification on the buck I shot. He stepped into my lane at 260, I ripped him through the lungs and he ran out into a thicket at 300 at which point I increased the power to 10 and gave him another one. Did I need 10x to shoot again? Not really but it worked as I picked a small opening to shoot through. Could have also made the shot with a 6x? Yes.
