The vegetation is generally so think in the mountains here, you can't see 75 yards. A wide view with low power works best. I was out today and I settled on 3X on a lit VX6.
I recently acquired a 1-4x24 Illuminati which I mounted on a LE6920. Pretty damn nifty, and I like it better than the 10x super chickens I've had. Now, if only SWFA would add illumination on the fixed 6x...
At any rate, looks like I'll be picking up at least a couple more 1-4's on Friday. Robust little scope with ample adjustment that actual tracks AND has an illuminated reticle for under three bills... a phfuggin' steal.
so I see they are coming out with a MOA reticle, which means if it becomes available in the 3-15 or 6x i will have to jump on the band wagon and give it a try
Clearing a 700 factory varm contour on a fairly low base (not bought yet) with the 6x42, go lows on the freebie rings? May have to try this mil quad thing on a cut down 5R .308.

Is it this one you like http://swfa.com/SWFA-SS-1-4x24-Tactical-30mm-Riflescope-P78365.aspx I've been drooling over this for a while to put on a Colt also! Hell wouldn't mind putting one on my 700 lss mountain (7mm-08) also. I'll miss the sale but even at the regular price it seems like a heck of a deal!
