I went to Africa with a VX-R 3-9. The lighted reticle was wonderful at twilight (when I took my Oryx) but I really wished for more magnification through the brush. I was afraid of the parallax problem, even under 200 yards (where I limit myself for the 9.3x62) which is why I selected a 3-9 as my primary scope.

Do you have a recommendation for how high a power it is safe to go without parallax adjustment? Maybe I would have been better off with a higher quality 3-9 or 3.5-10 than the Leupold?

Thoughts?
