Personally I find variable more useful at the range than when out hunting...


I generally agree with you, with one major exception: following up critters in cover that can bite back. It's nice to be able to dial that scope waaaaay back!

Having done it more than once and having used different scopes to do it I find your kind of post a bit sensational... maybe even dramatic...

I would rather have a 6x42 next time than just about any scope I can think of.
