My passion is varmints. I understand that game with a fair amount of precision. I am a little foggy on the advantages and priorities of big game scopes.
If you get a fixed 6x scope for simplicity's sake; do you need parallax adjustments for uses out to 400 yards or so or is it that lower power fixed scopes the real world parallax problems are nill?
On a 3x9 same question.
I understand mildot hold offs and cranking in the windage MOA but for big game out to 400 yards if you get a simple scope without good cranky knobs what are most folks doing for windage corrections? You either have to crank in the windage or hold off with a reticle. What am I missing?
I am trying to resist the temptation of putting a varmint scope on my new 280 go-to big game rifle. Perhaps I am looking for an in between scope???
Need some advice. I think I read somewhere long ago that Steve Timm uses a loopie 2.5x10 on his big game 280AI
