I have used a variety of scopes on 375's. 2.5, 1-4, 1.1-4, 2-8, 1.5-6, etc.
My favorites thus far are the 1.1-4x24's, 1.5-6x42's. I will be trying the 1-6x24's and a 1-6.3x24 and a 1.5-8x42. I suspect, for an all-around it is going to be a toss up between the 1.5-6 and 1.5-8 42's. They seem to do all well. When the light is fading, I have no issues with their bulk over the straight tubes.
I have been tempted a time or two, to put a 1.7-10x42mm on a 375.
I feel anything that gives me at least a 60' field of view on 1, 1.5, or 2 power is sufficient for close in hunting. More is nice and sometimes Really nice, but 60' seems sufficient for me.
So far, I have had no issues with below 4x making shots. But, do like having the 6x ability with an objective to support it in lower light. I have seen the lower light difference.
